HI, I am 27yr/o Female, post-op day 9 today. The worst experience of my life!! The first few days were bad but I thought to myself "this isn't any worse than tonsillitis." Bamm..day 5/6 I just cried as it just got worse and worse. I was not prepared for it to get worse before it got better. I can barely eat, soft mashed potatoes mac n cheese are ok, but after 4-5 bites I can no longer handle it. I got thrush 2 days ago (my doc says a side effect from the liquid amoxicillin) and now take another oral suspension on top of my other meds. I have lost 13 pounds but I don't feel good about it because I am literally starving!! I am so hungry and just want my life back. I have no energy and I think this is because of the lack of food. Water does help and I just grin and bare the pain and try to swallow to keep hydrated. Still not sleeping thru the night yet, as I wake up with a sore jaw and throat. I hope this will get better soon..
