Hey man don't be embarrassed!
Funny enough I was a bit of an outcast in High School and had my septum pierced but it unfortunately became infected after some digging around (this was almost 12 years ago) Now I'm 30 and planning on pursuing the ppl again but like you, after doing some research am not sure what to make of the "no abnormalities" since I too have a perforated septum.
I know it's been a few years and I hope you're doing well. Did you manage to get an answer on your situation?
