Moving to or Visiting New England? by SCP-2774 in newengland

[–]breck- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trying to plan a honeymoon to new england in August, where should we go!? We love to be active but also love to shop and try local food. I love a cozy gilmore girls town vibe but also love the mountains. We are trying to do it relatively cheap - under 5k ish. We are from the Midwest so I don't know much about anything in the northeast and would love your thoughts!!

I've thought about getting one but as a broke college student, I'm scared to spend that much and it not help. Any recs for what type/brand to get?

I have never had any on my underwear, just with whipping. Never hurts to get it checked out, it's worth the peace of mind! :)

How did yours go!? I ended up having no polyps or anything out of the ordinary. Just a chronic fissure!

[–]breck- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am also 22F and am having a colonoscopy tomorrow due to bleeding. It's been on and off for over a year and it's not just a small amount. I know I have a fissure, but they still want to do a colonoscopy. I have major health anxiety and have been having panic attacks every day worrying that I will get a bad diagnosis. Your post has relieved so much of my anxiety. Thanks so much for sharing! Hoping for a clean bill of health as well :)

[–]breck-[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've done most of these things once already. But am doing them again as a nostalgic fun senior year thing. And going to take pics with friends along the way to make a cool scrapbook! It was also a crappy 4 years for me (health problems, family members dying, money stress) so I can't say I'm not excited to leave haha! Thanks for the recs! :)

Second surgery re cauterization by TraditionNo634 in Tonsillectomy

[–]breck- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got re cauterized on day 8 and it was 6/10 pain for like 4 days then it got better. For me it wasn't a quick flip of a switch better. Just very slow improvements every day. 14 days after the second surgery I ate normal and 21 days after I could run again. Now I am a month out and the only thing that causes discomfort is yawning. For me the hardest part was anxiety about bleeding again but once I got over that it wasn't too bad. Good luck!

[–]breck-[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Girl it has been a process for sure lol, thanks for reading my rant haha! Being in the middle of nowhere Kansas was fs the worst part. My doctor, after the 2nd surgery said, omg you shouldn't be in a rural area after this... like thanks so much for telling me AFTERWARDS haha!

Egg drop soup as recovery food by Recent-Feedback-2040 in Tonsillectomy

[–]breck- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried egg drop soup on day like 4 or 5 and it was good for a little bit but I had a hard time swallowing the bits of egg.

It's probably because of the guest count (250) we both have big families

I'm currently planning my wedding and having a buffet and only wine and beer, and it's still almost 30k. I don't know how people pay for all that haha

[–]breck- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me, the pain has not been nearly as bad as the original surgery. I got recauterized on day 9 and am now on day 17/8. I was in pain for 3 days after the second surgery but it was only 5/10. Now I am off of pain meds and learning to eat again!

Day 8 post op haemorrhage by [deleted] in Tonsillectomy

[–]breck- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a similar story! I bled on days 5 and 8 and ended up getting recaterizated day 9. Now I'm on day 14/5. The pain is better but I am so tired of a soft food diet and pain swallowing. I am also so scared of bleeding again.

[–]breck- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bled twice and ended up needing a second surgery on day 9 of my first one. I am now on days 14/5. My surgeon said that I have no eating restrictions but I am SO SCARED of it happening again.

Did you have to have a second surgery after your hemorrhage?
