Why I will never get my tonsils out again!

So as posted earlier, I got my tonsils out 5 days ago and have regretted it ever since. People tried to tell me what it would be like and what to expect--it wasn't even close. I have a pretty high pain tolerance and have been in tears multiple times these last few day. Last night was probably the worst. For the most part I have been able to deal with the pain with just one pain pill and fluid. Well the vomiting started last night. With every movement a wave of nausea hit me causing me to bolt to the bathroom until I was dry heaving for hours. Because of this I couldn't keep my pain meds or even fluids down. Oh the party that was.

The good news is I'm half-way through my recovery!!! I called and got some phenergan to help with the nausea so at least I can control the pain and hunger. I'm doubling my pain meds was the best thing I have done. Though I can't walk or see straight at times but hey I can swallow!! So in trying to stay positive about this whole thing here are 10 good things about getting my tonsils out:

1. Lortab--it is my new and best friend, without whom I would not be where I am today.
2. Eating an endless supply of creamies and Popsicles until I get sick of them.
3. Being taken care of by my parents and siblings who are more than patient with me.
4. Having a lot of free time to read and update my blog.
5. Talking with my friends and see how many people care about me.
6. Not having to do my make-up everyday and staying in my PJs until I feel like changing
   
7. Sleeping any time i want to and not feeling guilty about it
8. Having highly entertaining dreams about Africa--more like hallucination
9. Hearing Mark speak at his homecoming, which was an amazing experience!
10. I now have to holes in the back of my throat that hold food for later!! :D
