Had surgery today at 9:30.Everything went good and I’m home sipping some soup. I had it done inter orally but had previously already had a tonsillectomy. He cut about and inch off, and my only symptom was the feeling of something being stuck in the throat. The bone was palpable when touched with a finger making it easy to locate.

Feeling confident this will heal me, and I will keep you updated as I heal up. But so far Id give pain about a 5 and easily controlled with pain medication

Day 2. This has actually been a breeze so far knock on wood. Already weening down on the pain medication. Still feel the stitches and its swollen so I can’t tell if the symptom is gone. But I’m hopeful that it is!

Day 3-4 were the worst pain days, as most surgeries seem to be. Slept a lot. Day 5 and 6 backing off the pain killers and skipping the mid day one. Still cant tell if the surgery helped, but I'm hopeful! This surgery was not as bad as a tonsillectomy.

Continued prayers are going up for you. 🙂 It is so hard to be “patient” Lol.I don’t know when you had the tonsillectomy, but tonsils are in the same proximity in a place that’s having all sorts of inflammation problems.Baby that throat! Hang in there it will get better:-)
