Finally a day of relief!!!
I can’t believe that I’ve finally had a day of relief!! I’m not sure what’s what…but it’s officially been a week since the surgery.
I woke up this am and while my throat was still dry (i hate that i’m a mouth breather), i was able to roll over and hack up a few coughs (some scabs included), then actually drink water. I got up and started my day. I haven’t taken my regular meds in about a week (which is probably not good for my mental state, but i couldn’t swallow). So I’ll try that on Monday.
But then, I suffered through a cup of yogurt today. Threw up some more bile, bc there really isn’t much in my belly. Stepped on the scale and had lost another pound. Slowly it’s slowing down.
I tried to sip on some french onion soup with chicken bits, but yeah..that wasn’t working. So instead, I took the new pill and didn’t take a narcotic pain pill. Instead, I took a nap. Then I woke up, prepared some lights around the house. (now automated bathroom and closet) and sat down to catch up on some season finale’s.
I took some of my liquid tylenol. My throat is coated it seems. So i got up, made some chicken broth soup (yeah i finally hit the store the other day). It was warm and felt good going down. I also made some tea. it was warm going down as well. I then made some naan bread. small bits of it…i took very tiny bites. it still went down.
I’m happy. Now let’s see how tomorrow goes. I haven’t looked in my mouth yet at my throat…i’m scared. But hopefully, it’s clearing up. They say it takes 10-12 days for it to be healed…i’m hoping that it will get extra better.
