    Buddy I used to live my life like that :rofl: I had severely deviated septum and enlarged turbinates. So even a minor cold (or all of allergy season) I was completely blocked up. I went sky diving one time and actually thought I'd burst my eardrums. Got it all fixed two years ago and it's been lifechanging.

    I need to look into this. I've had sinus problems all my life since I broke my nose at 3yo. Migraines every 2-3 days sucks ass due to sinus pressure. The worst is pollen season.

    believe so, never got it checked out. I have one nasal passage that is always stopped up - not side specific but one of them is always stopped up. I've never been able to breathe out of my nose properly. Hence why I'm a loud snoring mouth breather when I sleep lol.

    Matt, you gotta do it man. Seriously it's changed my life. My cardio probably got 25% better overnight just from being able to breath more freely. Not to overshare but it dramatically improved my performance in other areas too. When we would kiss Holly always said, I can tell you are holding your breath, because I couldnt even breathe though my nose at all. #mouthbreatherproblems

    So true, we used to do station visits at my old job which turned into booze fueled all nighters. Holy crap the next day sucked. You know it's bad when the inflight pizza is somehow a life saver.
    I'm in the same boat. People always ask me if I'm snickering or out of breath, no just trying to breathe.

    Yeah I should have done it late last year since I had already met my deductible and max out of pocket. My new insurance isn't that great though.

    Dr Bobby Silver at Charlotte Eye, Ear, nose & throat is amazing. Not sure if he's still practicing, but a great guy that's a friend of my parents. EDIT: He's a PA-C, not MD. When I asked him why he never got his MD, his response was simple "PA's don't work nights, weekends, or emergency calls"

    My wife has a deviated septum, has had sinus issues / sinus infections her whole life. Not sure why she wont get it fixed. I need to tell her to take it into the shop and get it serviced.

    If she is still under warranty you may try to return her to the Factory. I tried that when my wife turned 30, wanted a newer model. Unsuccessful.

    Well we put a hold on a lot in a new construction townhome community last weekend, have to go in Jan 2 to sign a contract, or take it back, TBD......

    It has plusses an minuses as everything does. Best part is the 2 car garage and 4 car driveway. everything else we have looked at is a dam 1 car garage / 1 car driveway, or a 2 car garage / zero driveway, and the extra parking situation either sucks, or is non-existent. Hopefully they come out with new incentives Jan 1. By the time you add in all the options, shit gets expensive real quick. The shitty part, is it is near impossible to lock in a mortgage rate now, to close in 6 mos. you can do it for a fee, like +1% on your rate, or a percentage of loan amount, which is a lot of $$. So, who has the crystal ball and knows what the rates will be in 6 mos :rofl: I am hedging that they will be +0.25%, hopefully no more.......

    You can upgrade and do bolt-ons...

    Mine did aftermarket bolt-ons soon after we started dating.

    I tend to prefer the stock configuration.
