  • What I found helpful during my recovery, hope this helps too! 👍🏽 1. Drink plenty of water, especially in the early hours of the morning even if you have to set an alarm for every 20 mins or so. If you don’t it’s more painful when you wake up in the morning having not drank any water. during the night and very early hours of the morning. I would recommend bottled water as this is less harsh on your throat, add plenty of ice 👍🏽 2. Watermelon 🍉 stock up on watermelon in the fridge and eat that when you wake up it’s very soothing on the throat. 3. Coconut water 4. Ice pack that you can tie/wrap around your head so that you don’t have to hold it, eBay and Amazon do these sort of ice packs 5. Eating regularly as possible 6. Keeping up with medication 7. Aloe vera juice 8. Plenty of rest 9. Watch other KZhead videos to of people who have have documented there journey this will help you not feel alone and give you some more tips to help you recover better All the best, you will recover and this will pass, you will get through this ❤

  • I started watching your videos yesterday for the IBS info and wanted to say that I hope you recover all right and that your partner sounds like a great person! My boyfriend has dealt with tonsil stones since high school and he plans on getting his tonsils out next year (He is 30). It is an expensive surgery here in the United States so he was waiting until he got better insurance through work. I hate hearing him scraping his throat and spitting blood multiple times a week. I didn’t even know about tonsil stones until I met him so I am so relieved you were a candidate for surgery so you do not have to suffer anymore!

But the pain was so bad last night, I barely ate anything in fear it would cause more bleeding. Best decision I made to get my parents to take me into hospital. Nurses gave me an IV and were able to monitor and reduce the bleeding. And they also me more medicine which helped reduce the pain (which has been a solid 10/10 since the surgery).

  • I am on day 4 of recovery. I had the surgery on Wednesday 15/6. It was my first time ever with general anaesthesia. It’s quite easy like you fall as a deep sleep without you even knowing. So I didn’t have any pain meds until Thursday lunchtime , the pain was reasonably. I could still have a white bread sandwich ham and cheese on day one and 2. Day 3 and today was quite painful. I took like 4 times of Nurofen for yesterday and today. This morning I woke up at 5am cos the pain woke me up. I am using ice bag for the back and front of my neck, my jaws. Constantly, having ice cube and drinking cold water, I find it helps with the pain. Today, day 4 Starts to see those scabs is coming off for a bit. Hopefully, the recovery is going well for everyone.

  • I'm on day 4 and here's what really helped me so far: Ice packs (any) Spit bucket (I just spit in napkins / tissue) Popsicles (ice cream taste good but it makes my spit extra thick) Sleep Smoothies (pretty thin) Jello(just kinda slides down your throat and it's cold) Pudding Ice water Gatorade Tips I have that helped me: 1# If you have soup make it lukewarm you DO NOT want warm hot soup it will hurt #2 If your hungry eat nice things that will suit your throat,but whatever food You can eat try to it will make you feel better #3 Eat after you take your medicine it will not hurt to swallow and you will feel pretty good (don't waste your energy even if you feel good, I used my time to take a shower and change into comfy clothes and eat some) #4 if your swelling i recommend ice packs it will decrease the swelling. #5 if you want to have the baby food go for it, I don't think I could based on what I feed my brother and but also puréed is also good (it's baby food) I also got my adenoids out I noticed no pain and only my throat hurt. I feel very lucky I've never had a tonsil stone. I got my tonsils out because they were ver very very oversized as well as my adenoids my adenoids and tonsils were 3-4x the size as they should be, already noticing my breathing is significantly better.

  • I'm getting higher up on the waitlist for my surgery and found your video. I have to wait 6 weeks because I caught bronchitis recently. I've been waiting 25 yrs to get this done and finally have a willing doctor that's not beating around the bush. TY for your vid. I downloaded a text to speech app bc I have three kids and will not want to talk to them. lol Also, keep an empty glass beside you for a spittoon and a napkin or cloth for wiping. Just don't confuse it with your other drink glass. Whenever I get sick, spitting out any mucus helped. Looks disgusting carrying a glass of spit with colored globs, but you can get a ceramic mug with a lid to hide it. It's easy late at night to just spit into a cup instead of the hassle of aiming for tissues in the black of night. I will have my spittoon and my tray table handy for this surgery. I had horrible gerd reflux when pregnant, so I'm hoping not to get that with eating less . I don't want it adding to the nausea. I just noticed in the US they have omeprazole on amazon. I'm going to the US soon and stocking up. Omeprazole was the best thing to work for my gerd asides from zantac before it got pulled off the shelves. Omeprazole is by prescription only in Canada now. There is a disolvable omeprazole on amazon. I didn't see the results listed, but there are studies to see if an antiacid can help reduce tonsilectomy pain, omeprazole was used in one of the studies. Omeprazole isn't an antiacid though but does a similar job to treat reflux. I might take a 14 day round of Omeprazole before the surgery and ask if it's ok to take in recovery as well. Or ask if a regular antiacid is ok after surgery. Just a tidbit for others to ponder over and ask especially if they suffer from reflux and heartburn. I also plan to take otc Colace and Modere liquid collagen which will help with being regular. I'm ready for the surgery, but not the recovery. Thanks for your video for some confidence and cheer.

    • I totally relate to this, I’m on day 6 and the pain is so intense- it probably too a turn for extreme on day 2/3 for me and has remained. On that day (3) I asked my doc for oxy because the T3 they gave me honestly did nothing. I was taking 2 every 4 hours and it was still too horrible to even swallow water. Now when I take the oxy for about 2-3 hrs in a day it feels less painful enough to try and eat something easy. It has also been bad nausea for me since I am taking pain meds on basically an empty stomach. That’s the other issue! But overall I highly suggest that people ask for pain meds that work for them, it’s short term and it’s needed. Don’t be afraid to take medication when it’s needed. ❤️

  • Did research on this prior to my tonsillectomy, I found your video to be the most informative thank you. Currently on day 6 and so far everything has been the same as you. The exhale thing you mentioned is stronger for me, when I lay flat on my back or when I try to blow my nose or laugh, my nose completely closes off airflow. So like a 1 way valve, I can breathe in, but not out. It's just my nose though, I can still breathe out my mouth. But hopefully that goes away soon. The knives going through your ears to your neck is spot on... Hoping that I can look forward to that day 8 relief. Was actually about to run out of my narc med today but the dr refilled the prescription for me. So nearly there, just have to press on a little further.

Instead I’m recovering for two weeks or a lil more then I’m done forever and it’ll be worth it.

  • I'm on day 6 of my recovery. So far it has been pretty standard. I didn't have any fevers day 1 or 2. Day 3 was the worst with pain. Sleeping has been hard. But, what I am currently hating is this cough. I keep doing this tickle down my throat...I am so scare of bleeding because of this cough but apparently it's the scabs coming off. Anyone else had this issue?

    • I am in day 4 of recovery, I think you could use some ice bags to put on the back of your neck and front. Hope it helps, I called my doctor this morning and that is what they suggested me, as I had a but of fresh blood coming out. After doing so for like 30mins, it started to feel better with pain and itchiness. Hope the recovery is going well for everyone.

  • I m at day 7. I m doin pretty well so far, my worst days were day 4 and 5. Can’t describe how bad that was…But i ve been drinking so much water since i had surgery . Day 4 and 5 were that painful with ear pain, i thought i had a infection in my ear. But That was not a case. Just scabs were coming off. Drinking a water and eating well even it is painful, very useful. As long as ur body feels strong you will be good I guess. Btw protien shakes are the best

I'd swallow stuff and they wont stay down. The first 3 days were okay. I lost 20lb 😢. Im on day 14 and already eating hard stuff and moving on with life tonsils free😅. Day 4 and 5 is really tough. Pain pain pain. Surgery was a breeze while recovery is hell😢

  • Im on day 8/9, seems like your recovery was way better than my experiance so far. Have almost not managed to eat anything trough the entire recovery . Gone down 5kg, not able to speak. The ear pain everytime i take a sip is unbearable, the more i drink the longer it lasts, like someone is stabbing you in the ear. I am really looking forward to eating again, medication making me oozy. Had a throat chocking feeling the 5-6-7th day, where it felt like something was stuck in my throat (was super didturbing). I regret making the surgery so much, hope its worth it 🤞

    • My father had it done in his 20s and never had problems with his throat for the rest of his life. It's taken me forever to get a doctor to agree to do mine. I'm soooo looking forward to this. I've been waiting/suffering 25 years. I've heard it's hard to recover from the older you get and I don't want to be an old woman still getting these infections. Get it done if it bothers you so much and is chronic enough.
