So I am 16 years of age and I have just had my tonsils and my adenoids removed, I was forced into it by my mother and whenever I backed out of the operation I was shouted at and in the end forced to proceed. So day 1 the pain was extremely mild that as soon as I got into my hospital bed I was eating pizza and chips and at 3.00 at night eating crisps. I laughed at other people who I knew had the surgery and called them hypercondriacts and said they where lying about all the pain they where in. Baring in mind I was full of morphine at this point. So I opted to be on the children's ward as I am 16 and I choose this as they made the experience of the removal sound simple. So anyway I got discharged with some kids medicine which was for ages 0-3 to 5 year old baring in mind I am 16. I am now on day 6 and I can't stop crying because the pain is that bad it just seems to be getting worse. It is well and truly agonising. I find difficulty breathing in the first place and this operation has done nothing but making me burst out in panic attacks. I have had no sleep in the slightest and have had barley nothing to eat today as everytime I am eating something it is getting stuck. Today some of my stitches had fallen out and it just has felt even more raw. My adenoids are swollen and have a massive pulse every second of the day I wake and up on a morning and sometimes wish I never woke up I am very depressed. I was not told what I would be in for with this operation and I can feel nothing but anger and sadness.
My boyfriend rushed me to the nearest walk in centre in hope that they would get me something stronger as I have been looking on other people's medication and I can only be frustrated that I have paracetamol. The nurse said he couldn't help me and I have been left with no pain relief . The ear pain in my ears are dreadful I'd rather have tonsolities 50 times over than have this operation. If I could go back in time I would have never of got it done. Nobody takes this operation seriously nd they tell me to just get on with it. I just don't know what to do with myself l. Can someone help please ??
