Nine Days Since Procedure

So, I lied. I didn't call the doctor on Monday re: blood slugs. I continued to have them through yesterday morning after rinses with a nasal irrigation system (pictured below).

Can I add that since my surgery, nasal irrigation actually drains properly? Before, I guess I was just shooting water up into my sinuses and it was falling out of the same nostril rather than going THROUGH. 

My doctor-prescribed round of healing now also involves me following up rinses with a half-solution of saline and the contents of the orange capsules (Levoflox).

I sneezed this morning, partially through my nose: I'm fine and it didn't hurt more than my head does (roughly a 2-3 on the pain/discomfort scale). My next appointment is January 20.
