AHHHH...the pain

Just a quick update. Sorry it has taken so long to write. The surgery went well and the recovery stinks, but I was told that it would. As for the pain, it HURTS and recovery stinks with adult tonsillectomies.

So as for today, I went back to the doctor this morning and he said that stuff just takes time. Also-totally my luck-I have developed thrush (yeast infection in mouth) so I get another antibiotic for that. Oh Joy!!! The doctor also changed pain medicines for me today (good thing) since my gag refluxes are kicking in and my not not good tasting pain medicine is yucky. I want to be painless soon and not have to take meds every 4 hours!!!

Am hoping to feel better soon and more posts to come later when I do not get dizzy sitting at the computer.

Please pray that I am soon ridden of the pain and that swallowing becomes easier. The only think I can eat right now is mostly yogurt and ice chips, so I am hoping and praying to be able to eat something else soon. I NEED and WANT my energy back. It is no fun being worn out from stairs or taking a shower. Thanks in advance!!!

Have a wonderful Tuesday!!!

Recovery is tough. But just try to take it slow. I'm sure your frustrated with a turtle like pace when your ready to go full speed ahead Scotty! It'll come. Take it easy.
