Tonsillectomy - PROLOGUE

9:55:00 PM

Hey bloggie.

I'm a little bit excited to share something big.

I AM PROUDLY A FRESH GRADUATE!

....got ya.
You read the title, right?

I just went through TONSILLECTOMY as my first surgery precisely last week and now on a recovery bedrest.
It's not because I wanted to escape from daily extreme-busy-ness I've been complaining the past few weeks. If I meant to, I would have chosen Alaska. or Namibia. whatever. This escape is not actually sweet, it's ROUGH.

So the whole story was that I had been having throat inflammation for the past 2 years, and it was clearly not a good fact for me. I tried doctors, and doctors, THTs, and THTs. Some of them succeeded in healing me with their choice of antibiotics, BUT, the inflammation would come back in a short period of time. So in conclusion, for the past 2 years, healthy period was nothing compared to the inflammation period.

The peak event was 2 weeks ago, having hard and hurting time to swallow food (another events before were having 3 days hiccups, etc.). After that, I went to RSI to check my throat for the 731th or 732th time, and the doctor pinpointed that it's probably my tonsil the whole time. Well some acquaintance mentioned that before to me, and now maybe is the best time to progress further. I was given medicines again to reduce the swelling of my tonsil, So on the next week's Tuesday I went to RKZ to consult with a familiar doctor, and was convinced even more to process with the surgery. I was surprised myself that we scheduled it super early, on Friday that week. He also warned that I would have to be aware of what I had to face 1 month post-surgery.

3 points.
- 1 - I would have to have 1 week bed rest in home after the period in hospital.
- 2 - My diet would be:
WEEK 1 - super smooth porridge, vanilla ice cream, porridge
WEEK 2 - marie regal + milk, misua
WEEK 3&4 - steamed rice
then freedom.
- 3 - Forbidden: hot, spicy, solid foods; sports

I was having hard time because I had a HUGE dance competition to be in, an international dance workshop that I've been waiting for all m life, and also a dance job. Other than that, I also have obligations in student council and all the university things. But then again, the doctor said something about having the chance in these periods, so there goes.
