Well it's took yeeeears of waiting! But finally had my tonsils out on thursday. Aswell as the tonsils, there was something else which I can't remember what they called. A funky little growth thingy which they chopped off. They've sent that off for tests and should let me know in about 4 weeks when I have to go back for a check up. It hurts like f@#k, but suprisingly not as bad as I expected. The worst thing was the boredom, I had to go in on wednesday 3pm and ended up sitting about doing nothing all day. A couple of forms and such which took about 20 min's altogether. Then the op was about 3pm the following day! Don't know why I couldn't have just gone in thursday MOrning!!! Being put to sleep really spun me out. Only ever had local before. People had told me general was quite trippy, but I still ended up confused. I was asking the nurse who was next to me "is it meant to take this long" thinking that when I was waking up, I was still drifting off! And Telling her my throat was sore, as I thought it was just aching due to the injection! :D Funny thing was, I was in a room on my own when they gave the injection. And the guy who did it was well over 6ft and Indian looking. Then when I woke up and was wondering how come it was taking so long, I was in a recovery room with a few other people and the nurse who was next to me was a short chinese woman! :lol: easy mistake! Now for two weeks of boredom :( Will hopefully be worth it after having many years of throat, and throat related problems though :) They didn't really give me muc after care advice though. :confused:
