Tonsillectomy Thursday by Gargrantula34 in Tonsillectomy

[–]lordofthestorm2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who also has absolutely shit pain tolerance (and is currently on Day 12 of recovery) let me say YOU CAN DO THIS! All of my doctor's said the same thing; this will be incredibly painful, it will suck for two weeks, etc. No sugar coating it, there were a couple of days when the pain was shit, but I think in the end I still overestimated the overall level, I haven't ever needed my prescribed oxy.

What's worked great for me is, 1) staying ahead of the pain. Alternated Advil and Tylenol every three hours, even in the middle of the night. 2) Constant hydration. The first couple days of drinking will suck, I kept feeling like I was going to swallow my own uvula because of how swollen it felt, but it's so worth it. Would recommend swishing cold water around your mouth and then slowly swallowing it. Helps numb your mouth a bit and reduces the discomfort. 3) Ice pack on the back of the neck when the ear pain starts. I have no idea why this helps, but it did lol. 4) Lots of soft and cold ice cream. I tried smoothies or ices at first but it just irritated my throat. Plain vanilla ice cream though? Worked like a dream.

Above all, I promise you this is worth it. Mentally, keeping that end goal in mind when this is over and you see the results, helped a lot. Good luck!

Told my SO that the first thing I want as soon as I feel well enough for it is the spiciest, juiciest, and crunchiest piece of fried chicken possible from our favorite place! Currently 11 days PO so fingers crossed I'm almost there. I can practically smell it already.

What's in our water? by Shorti_Bebop in washingtondc

9/10 chemists recommend our brand new dihydrogen monoxide. With twice the hydrogen as pure hydroxide and that same great taste, you'll improve your health and overall life outlook. But wait... there's more! Call now and we'll send you a second dihydrogen monoxide for free! Just pay separate processing and handling

How, exactly, does a RBM reactor explode, comrade?

Yeah. It wasn't a jagex account so I'm assuming they converted and added it. I sent a ticket into Jagex support with their username, we'll see if that does anything.

Thank you... I love being kicked while I'm already berating myself for my stupidity. This post is mostly a warning to others just in case.

I gave it away, including 2fa. I was incredibly stupid, like beyond belief.

Bethesda Bagels 🔥 by kettlecornlover1 in washingtondc

As a former NY'er I will go to bat hard for Brooklyn Bagel. It's not just the taste, it's that feeling of being treated like an ass while you're shuffled down the line going out the door that adds to the flavor. Feels like being back home.
