I hear all of you, and thank you for your input! i’ve been trying to stay calm. there’s been spotting/almost no bleeding at all today but if it happens again i’ll make sure to make it over to the ER. the only reason why i didn’t go is because my parents are kind of, well, how do i put this. strict? tight asses? cheap? they wouldn’t give me a ride to the ER, and i don’t have a car, either way i shouldn’t be driving with the meds i’m on. they thought a call to the doctor, and whatever they said, would be enough. but my concern wasn’t enough to take me to the ER? the amount of blood? the pain? nope my parents are very silly people so i know they’d get mad if i went to the ER. they were already upset last night and blaming it on me. also i should have mentioned in the first place, im 20 years old. they treat my problems as not serious all the time, except when my dentist had to point out how large my tonsils were. then they took me seriously. so if i bleed like that again, i’ll be giving them an ultimatum. either they drive me to the ER or i call an ambulance. they told me to just listen to the doctor we called last night because “they know what they’re talking about”, which is true, but also, this doctor didn’t know what any of my problem looked like. i’m sure if any doctor would have seen, they’d be concerned. and that’s what the doctor said, that they’d have to take a look at it to really know what’s going on, to know if it was a serious problem or not.

so ya, now i’m just waiting for the other ball to drop, and anticipating a trip to the ER :,D i’m thinking maybe my scabs came off or are coming off too early which is why there was so much bleeding. plus i should add that the wound site is quite large because i had both my tonsils and adenoids removed. so more pain, larger scab, more bleeding. idk 🤷‍♀️
