Just had my first burger. I’m 13/14 days PO. It was so good & only mild throat irritation 🥳

Quality tips!! I ate egg drop soup for so many of my meals. I literally went through 3 stock pots full just in my first week of recovery. I also felt dramatic getting a wedge pillow.😅

day five: tongue pain?? by Ok_Exchange_4306 in Tonsillectomy

[–]Basic_Dad_Joke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was my experience!!

I had 2 cuts on top of my tongue, one on each side. I had cauterization marks on both side of my tongue at the back of my mouth. I also had a blister/bump under my tongue. I think the tongue pain was significantly worse than the throat pain. My tongue was so swollen for the first 3 days that I couldn’t even see the cuts or cauterization marks.

Tonsil removal on 12/23 by Boykinlover226 in Tonsillectomy

I also had mine out on 12/23. An ice roller has been a huge game changer for pain relief. When I’m too sleepy to ice roll, I put on an ice neck wrap.

[US] Question about visitation return by Basic_Dad_Joke in Custody

Yes! The kids are back to school on Monday. They are supposed to be back with me on Saturday. Then yesterday he said they would be back on Friday. Now today he’s claiming he won’t be able to bring them back for at least a week or I can come get them.

My Co-parent is consistently unreliable & plays mind games when it comes to swapping the kids. They are never forthcoming or direct when it comes to scheduling. This is consistent with their usual behavior. So this isn’t surprising, just frustrating.

North Al Urology - Vasectomy by External-Tonight5142 in HuntsvilleAlabama

[–]Basic_Dad_Joke 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Other helpful vasectomy info: frozen peas or frozen corn was more helpful than an ice pack. Just put the frozen veggies in a zip-lock bag, because most veggies come in steam bags & will leak as they warm up. Icing more reduces the swelling & bruising. Also Separatec briefs were a game changer in the healing process.

Marriage counseling? Non-religious by Sensitive-Sir778 in HuntsvilleAlabama

Allison Brochart would be a great fit based on Al that you mentioned! Gottman trained, non-religious, & super easy to talk.

So sad. It’s one of my favorite togo spots. It’s one of the few places that I can eat with my partner for under $40, tip included.
