I actually feel a little better. My throat isn't hurting as much but my jaw bone is and my head is still throbbing.
I was able to eat some noodles and a smoothie.
I can only imagine that during the surgery they had to wrench my mouth open and press my tongue down while pushing my uvula up out of the way. I bet the surgeon fit his whole hand in my mouth, the way it feels right now.
I got some more sleep this morning and I'd still be sleeping if my ears didn't hurt so much.
I hope this means the worst is over...

Hi, I'm 37 year old female, This is day to for me. Last night was hell. Codeine wore off every 3 to 4 hours so I hardly slept. So today I split the dose to half a tablespoon every 3 hours instead of 1 tablespoon every 6. It really seemed to help. I ate noodles, jello, mash potatoes and a chocolate shake. Which was a big NO NO for me. No more dairy. The mucus collected behind my swollen ulvula and is driving me insane. I can't swallow the Thick mucus/snot and I can cough. Ugh so it's just sitting there. I would not advise anyone to have ice cream. But slushy and apple sauce and jello for sure. So far not as bad as I thought. I have not had neck, jaw or ear pain yet! So I hope that keeps up. Thanks for writing this blog. It has really helped me. Even though it was like 6 years ago. Thank you!
