Hehe... Just kiddin... It's day 10! Supposedly from what I've read, many tonsillectomy patients feel amazingly different starting on day 10. Supposedly, day 10 is the "turning point" that makes it seem so much more manageable!
Well.... today, day 10... it feels about like day 9! Granted... since we adjusted the BP meds, I am feeling better in that regard! HOWEVER, throat still hurts. Let me share something with you... this is kinda weird. My throat obviously hurts, BUT what hurts more is my tongue and my teeth/jaws! The burning and constant pain is NOT in my throat, it's the surrounding area that hurts the worst! Is that weird? I don't know enough people who have had this procedure to know if it's normal... and I don't get to see my doctor again (he's on vaca) until the 18th, so I can't ask. So... I just wonder if this is weird or normal.
ANYWAYS.....
Today was my first real outing! I went to WalMart for some groceries. I know that's not really considered a "fun" outing, but it was nice to get out of the house for a little while! My mom went shopping with me- nice hanging out with her again sans children!
For dinner, we had super yummy fried chicken, mashed potatoes, and corn! Did I mention it was yummy!!!??? Looking forward tomorrow's dinner... love holidays with family!
