Okay I'm at a gross stage of recovery so lots of gross everywhere. Don't read if that stuff bothers you.

I'm now pretty much without a voice. I think my throat has scabbed over (it's supposed to) and I'm coughing up the massive chunks of protective phlegm that coats the throat when it's still exposed. Fun. Choking on mucus is seriously in my top 10 from experience worst ways to wake up.

Yesterday was pretty good pain wise, but the pain is back today. Codeine has some sucky side effects I think they should stress more. Like I dunno... Constipation that when relieved will make you feel like a chicken that laid an ostrich egg. If anyone has any suggestions like a tea or something, I'm definitely open to that. I'm not a fan of medical laxatives because my stomach feels off for weeks.


Overall though, despite feeling gross and a little more sore than yesterday, I'm improving slowly. :) I hope everyone's weekend is going well!
