Day 3.

I feel like I had a total false sense of security regarding pain levels on day 1. I was like sure this hurts, but it could be worse. If this is what it's going to be like then it's not so bad. THAT'S NOT WHAT IT'S LIKE PEOPLE!! The first day was a total walk in the park pain and eating wise. Today for the second day in a row I cried whilst trying to eat a banana first thing this morning. I'm trying to be a model patient and eat proper solid food to promote healing but currently I just don't know if I can do it.

Last night I googled best foods to eat after a tonsillectomy and found an about.com page about it where people had contributed. Some guy had posted on there that he'd just had his out and was fine and returning to work the next day. Like the day after his op. Crazy fool. I can only assume he was completely mental or lying. No amount of money in the world could make me go to work right now, I doubt I'd be able to function properly at my job anyway, I mean for starters I don't think I could actually speak to customers. Physically incapable because of the pain. 

Another day of bed rest is in store for me today. So glad I'm at my mums and not home alone, this would be a bajillion times worse without people looking after me.
