I'll be absent for a while - tonsillectomy scheduled for next monday! [back home now] by Sunshine on 12-13-2006 at 02:58 PM

As some of you know i been having problems with my tonsils for quite a while now (chronic cryptic tonsillitis, tonsilstones/tonsoliths).

Well today i got my call from hospital as to when i'll have my Tonsillectomy.

I'll go in on sunday evening, operation on monday...if all's well i'll be going home again on wednesday morning.

Just wanted to let you all know, so nobody will wonder where i am.

Glad you finally got a date for it :)    Hope it all goes well and hope you feel back to your self asap :D

Hope you don't get too bored in hospital, make sure you take plenty to read or lots of crosswords lol, I dunno about there, but daytime tv is rubbish when you're stuck in hospital for a few days.

Good luck :D

Note: :S i thought a larger porportion of people that got tonsillitus were younger children, have u suffered from tonsil related problems throughout your life?

Tonsillectomy in adults is perhaps more painful than in children, though everyone's experience is different.

Yea it's good to have a date now...even tho one part of me is scared (for the recovery period and the afterbleed risk), the other part of me is happy because it will mean an end to the tonsil problems :)

RE: I'll be absent for a while - tonsillectomy scheduled for next monday! by Sunshine on 12-14-2006 at 11:02 AM

Update: I won't be around on friday (during the day) either...because my operation is on monday i will be taken in (talks with several ppl, examinations etc.) on friday at 11 am, but will go on weekend leave (asof 15.00/15.30 if and when all who i have to talk with has been by...if not i'll have to wait till they do).


RE: I'll be absent for a while - tonsillectomy scheduled for next monday! by Sunshine on 12-21-2006 at 10:20 AM

Hi everybody!

I indeed got back home yesterday :D

Still very tired and sore (painkillers yay :dodgy: ) and spending lots of time sleeping and following my diet. I get to eat something extra every day till i can eat regular food again (cold/lukewarm fluids now), if all goes to plan i'll be eating bread (without crusts) again on sunday (24th).

For those wondering: nope i didn't get icecream in hospital...just icewater, fluid foodreplacements, lemonade and yoghurtdrink.

Ohh yea..i also found out i'm allergic to morfine, it gives me skin rashes (when they gave me that on recovery my hand started to itch real bad so they used something else..i forgot the name of that but it started with an e).


RE: I'll be absent for a while - tonsillectomy scheduled for next monday! [back home now] by vaccination on 12-21-2006 at 10:45 AM

yays, sunshine's back.

I hope your recovery goes okay, and is as quick as possible :P
