so I have felt the ear pain every day but it was very tolerable. But now my ears are killing me so much so that i was sleeping and that pain alone woke me up. everytime I swallow it kills my ears, the throat pain sucks but the ear pain is the real killer. i was at the point where everytime I swallow Id plug my ears and it helped a little, nowww that doesn't even help.
yesterday i was able to go into the bathroom and work up some of the mucus thats been sitting in the back of my throat, and it was bloody and gross. I spit it all out and i felt better (maybe just in my head but who knows)
and now the past 3 times ive tried to sleep i wake up with killer pain and my throat is a little bloody. is this normal?

oh also, for anyone who ever has really bad breath and feels hopeless i found gargling with warm salt water was amazingggg
welp in the evening of day 8 (or day 7 i had my surgery at 8am so i consider that recovery day 1) I finally got some relief. I was so in pain and miserable that i took the water and tried to chug it... haha, I got down like 1/4 of it. I think that helpped some of the scabs come off but i finally felt better. I then ate 3 pieces of toast w cream cheese and macaroni.
that probably helped too because before that i hadn't eaten much and lost 17 pounds in a week (i am 6'4 208 to 6'4 191) but I woke up this morning and I felt much better my voice is still off and mucus is still there (gross, gargle w salt water helps) but i feel so much better and finally am over the hump. hopefully all good things from here
