For over a decade I put up with watery eyes, a runny nose and itchy skin every time I stepped outside. The thoughts of mowing my lawn or working in the yard almost distressed me.<\/p>\n<p class=\"pillar-text animate fadeInLeft\">It was time to turn to someone for help.<\/p>\n<div class=\"button-wrap-right\"><a href=\"https:\/\/carolinaearnosethroat.com\/about\/patient-stories\/jonathan-mark-hodge\/\"><button class=\"button\">Full Patient Story<\/button><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"contain pillar-row right-image\">\n<div class=\"pillar-content\">\n<h2 class=\"pillar-title animate fadeInRight\">Betty Bostian<\/h2>\n<p class=\"pillar-text animate fadeInLeft\">Dr. Zanation really saved my life twice because he had to do two surgeries on my nose; if he had not continued to see me all these years, I would not be doing as well as I am. Dr. Zanation is the one to see if you have any breathing problems. <\/p>\n<div class=\"button-wrap-left\"><a href=\"https:\/\/carolinaearnosethroat.com\/resources\/patient-forms\/betty-bostian\/\"><button class=\"button\">Full Patient Story<\/button><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"pillar-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/carolinaearnosethroat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/screen-shot-2019-10-31-at-1.jpg\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"contain pillar-row left-image\">\n<div class=\"pillar-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/carolinaearnosethroat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Carolyn_Huff.jpg\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"pillar-content\">\n<h2 class=\"pillar-title animate fadeInRight\">Carolyn Huff<\/h2>\n<p class=\"pillar-text animate fadeInLeft\">Some of my earliest childhood memories are trouble breathing from asthma, numerous penicillin shots and many trips to the hospital.  Things improved as I grew up; but allergies often triggered the asthma conditions and as I moved into my 60s these problems came more frequently.  Finally near retirement age from teaching I had the good fortune to visit Carolina Ear Nose and Throat and meet Dr. David Melon.<\/p>\n<div class=\"button-wrap-right\"><a href=\"https:\/\/carolinaearnosethroat.com\/about\/patient-stories\/carolyn-huff\/\"><button class=\"button\">Full Patient Story<\/button><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"contain pillar-row right-image\">\n<div class=\"pillar-content\">\n<h2 class=\"pillar-title animate fadeInRight\">Debbie Graham<\/h2>\n<p class=\"pillar-text animate fadeInLeft\">Upon arriving at Carolina Ear Nose and Throat I was met with such a professional staff. When I met Dr. Jarrett, he immediately put me at ease. Years had gone by just putting up with difficulty breathing, senseless infections, and the loss of smell and taste.
