I had my inferior turbinates reduced a week ago. Already I am breathing a lot better, and I can feel I'm not fully healed yet (gets better every day). Should have had it done years ago. Something (not sure what) caused the turbinates to become larger some time ago, giving me breathing trouble. It's incredibly liberating to be able to nasally breathe freely again. I might even go so far as to say (utterly unscientifically) that I feel that I'm thinking more clearly now too!
