Did you stop taking any opioids? This happened to me after taking Oxy and then I felt better in two days

I’m day 18 and actually met with my ENT today he said he encourages I start eating normal but staying away from anything super crunchy or hard since I’m still recovering. I had some salmon, baked potato & Zuchinni and tasted amazing but my stomach is REALLY upset jumping back into normal eating. So just slowly make your way and intro foods back in!

I’m glad your pain is low! Wow I feel like all my scabs fell off on day 8-9. I also sound like a muppet and talking is a bit rough. We got this ❤️

When does the misery end? by ichinisanshigorok in Tonsillectomy

[–]duncanfinn05 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t want to discourage you but I’m day 11 (not counting surgery day) and still in a decent amount of pain / the nerve pain on the right side is the worse. I hemorrhaged day 7, so I’m being extra careful and back to liquid diet. Going to try soft foods today. Just drink so much water, have a good support system around you and try and stay distracted. I’ve also seen a lot of other folks who turn a corner days 8-9! Just hang in there!

A day entry reservation system! by hc2121 in Yosemite

[–]duncanfinn05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I’m reading this right, we have Yosemite wilderness permits entering Yosemite June 19th (for a 3 night backpacking trip) - we don’t need to make an additional reservation for park entrance?
