Surgery went ok for anyone who wants to know.
Woke up from anesthesia crying, and then felt drunk for the rest of the time until it wore off.
I'm stuck dealing with a congested nose and a swollen uvula, hopefully for only a few days. Otherwise I'm going to be pissed.
I have to drink lots and lots of fluids and rest.
The pain isn't as bad as I thought it would be, my throat doesn't hurt anymore than strep throat or tonsilitis normally would for me.
But my tonsils and adenoids are out.
The anesthesiologist said that after I was under, he went to put the breathing tube down my throat and my tonsils were so big, he had a really hard time getting it down there.
The doctor also had to put stiches in my throat because the incisions he had to make were so wide, it bled too much so he had to stitch it up.
As of right now, my nose is more stuffy and my throat hurts more than before my surgery.
Hopefully that won't last for too much longer.
On the bright side, I get to take Tylenol with codene for pain, eat a shit ton of ice cream and watch useless TV for a week.
Not too shabby for Meghan.
Lindsay came and visited me for a bit today after I got home.
The anesthesia had not completely wore off yet, so I basically was falling asleep while she was talking to me.
Sorry boo, I love you and thank you for the Reese's eggs!
I would love more visitors! So any of you who aren't too busy to keep a sick girl company, please give me a call. Any companionship is welcome.
And thanks to anybody who has sent me sweet messages or called me. It is very appreciated and duely noted.
