Sinus FES surgery recovery

Hello, I had sinus surgery six days ago to flush out and widen my sinus's and my first two days post op I felt great! Minimal pain I just felt tired however from day three until now I've just been in bed feeling so poorly.

I did phone the hospital and they said the recovery is very up and down but I went from feeling really rather well to feeling the complete opposite.

I'm not allowed to blow my nose but I do have a lot of discharge coming from my nose ( they said this is normal) but my taste and smell has 100% gone and this worries me.

I was just wondering if anyone could share their experience of their recovery?
Many thanks

I also felt fine for first few days but ended up with an infection around day 6.

DH was signed off work for 2 weeks and I'd say he needed all that time to recover.

Thank you. I was seen today and I am being treated with antibiotics now thankfully!
