14. Tonsillectomy/Adendoidectomy Surgery 

It's day 14 post Tonsillectomy and Adendoidectomy Surgery  and I'm almost 100% back to my normal self. It still burns on the left side of my tongue/tonsil a little & I still have a nasty taste in my mouth but other than that I'm back to myself.

Over all I'd have to say my surgery was a walk in the park compared to what I've read on Google. Yes, there was a few times I woke up in a lot of pain but pain meds and ice cold water managed it.

The only time it really sucked was when I first woke up and my throat was dry. Not being able to really sleep wasn't a whole lot of fun either but overall it's worth it.

I feel like I can breath a lot easier now too. Not having all that extra stuff up there has made my breathing a lot easier. I don't know if I snore still but I don't think I do. I wake up a lot more rested.

I'd recommend this surgery for others, 2 weeks of manageable discomfort verses months of strep and horrible sore throats. Worth it!

This is the last I'll be posting about my surgery and recovery unless something major happens. I think everyone gets the idea.

Thanks for reading and following my recovery!!!
