Dr Seckin ulusoy seemed kind and knowledgeable at first, at the day of surgery right before going…read moreinto the operating room his nurse Ibrahim brought me a stack of papers to sign and that's when I got kind of suspicious ,I've almost left the hospital then I asked him to give me a moment to go through the documents, 15 minutes later the Dr showed up and he assured me that everything will be just fine and said "trust me" then my journey starts ,the second I woke up as I was still under the influence of anesthesia I could barley even speak I was bleeding through my nose and I yelled what y'all looking at can you do something then a guy comes at me bitting on his tongue with aggression when another nurse had to calm him down saying "what are you doing he's not fully awake and he needs help" then he left the room and I was told later that he was the anesthesiologist ,then I was moved to another room and the second I was able to get on my feet I went to the bathroom and looked in the mirror and I noticed that the splint inside my nose wasn't placed correctly one nostril looked wider than the other and one of the pieces he placed inside my nostrils was laying flat while the other one was placed vertically which pushed against the septum and made it curve to the side so I quickly took pictures and sent it to the doctor asking him why is it looking like this and if he could come ,he said he had a surgery in the morning then he'll come by to check later ,the nurse showed up the next day in the afternoon and he realized that something was wrong but didn't comment so he removed the two plastic pieces with tubes from my nostrils and showed me how to care for and clean the wounds ,then I head back to the hotel still recovering from anesthesia and pain medicine then I looked in the mirror again and noticed the cast was a little off not lined up so I took a picture and sent it to the doctor and he said it was ok then I noticed that part of the cartilage was showing inside my nostrils ,took pictures and sent it to him and he also said it was ok, day 7 removed the cast and splint from my nose I was so swollen couldn't even recognize me and of course the doctor assured me that it's only day 7 and things will get better by time ,I had to leave Istanbul the next day ,8 weeks later as the swelling started to go down I could feel and see the lines where he made the cuts (osteotomy) lines but I was still swollen ,at 12 weeks swelling had subsided to reveal a bone lump in my upper left side near the eye (left side nose bridge) at this point I got really concerned as it caused so much pressure and pain accompanied with congestion until this day and most importantly that the left side nose bridge was dented way more than the right side, left side nose tip was more rounded than the other side ,so I made a Video and sent it to the doctor but again he said it's ok and to wait for the swelling to go down ,month 5 my left side nose tip is more bumpy and bigger than the right side and so are my nostrils one opening bigger than the other ,took pictures made a video and sent it to him but again he said it was ok and assured me it'll get better by time ,at month 6 I was rushed to the emergency room for lack of oxygen and the amount of stress I had to deal with, so I sent him a message via watts app and he said to go see an ENT doctor, I made an appointment and I was diagnosed with a deviated septum and turbinate hypertrophy with severe nasal congestion.
