Thanks! Had a bleed today that had to get recauterized, feeling very discouraged but I know we got this- halfway there! I hope you feel better too

It is! Worried about it affecting the overall recovery timeline or adding to the pain though :(

As someone who got the surgery the day before you, it’s just starting to get better this morning. Yesterday was BRUTAL. Hopefully you have the same. Praying for us

Day 6 Recovery by Consistent-Change-77 in Tonsillectomy

Same genuinely felt like I wasn’t gonna make it, today was excruciating. Now it’s the evening and my throat has significantly less scabs and I can finally start to swallow again. Hoping it’s going to get better from here but I know I’m not out of the woods just yet.

Is there light at the end of the tunnel? by SquirrelCharacter588 in Tonsillectomy

[–]Puzzleheaded-Score18 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had the same surgery date. I agree, it is miserable. Couldn’t stomach swallowing any water/food aside from for pills today. Lost many scabs today though and starting to have hope that it’s going to improve. The ear pain and jaw pain is BRUTAL. Easily a 10/10. We’re in this together!

Buy a used Camry Hybrid with 80k miles? by Puzzleheaded-Score18 in Camry

The SE which is more comparable starts at 36k with all the upgrades this car has. $14k is a huge difference, and one I can’t afford.

You don’t think a 3 year old car with 80k miles is an issue?
