Hey everyone... Well I got my tonsils out about 4 days ago... (Monday the 10th) I've been reading some people's reactions post surgery...and found that Today I have actually experienced less pain then in the VERY beginning. THANK GOD (who knows it will probably get bad again) I have actually been able to eat my first bit of food since the surgery...and drank liquids a lot better! The first few days i found that my mouth was VERY VERY SORE! My tongue which i thought was very odd! My Uvula (hangy thing in the back of throat!) was incrediblyl swollen....and hanging quite a ways down the back of my throat

This was extremely uncomfortable as i many times confused it with muscus or "something lodged in the back of my throat" and would try to swallow it... Which was just extremely painful... I think the swelling has gone down a bit today--as it's easier to swallow.... I still have quite a bit of pain though. I've stopped taking my pain medication yesterday as it was making me extremely IRRITABLE! haha the littlest things began to bother me! I couldn't deal with that...and would much rather have slight pain then get mad at every little thing! lol

I also noticed a blood blister on the left side of my throat on the white part kinda where my tonsils used to be...Is this okay?? hmm Well hopefully I don't get worse and only get better.. OH and another annoying thing...When i sleep it seems that i want to cough all night.. Im literally choking...but can't cough in fear of hurting something back there... Earlier today i was coughing up quite a bit of blood

BUt that went away for now

Please let me know how you guys are healing...or what you've experienced
