Aghh...feeling horrible. Yesterday (day 2) was ok and pretty much like day 1, however today, I just feel plain yucky. I feel like I am getting worse, which is to be expected. The back of my throat is completely white and my tongue is so swollen. To top all it all off, I AM HUNGRY! I have been eating, but it is all the same stuff...sweet, cold and milky. I want some meat. I want something with texture. I know, I know only a couple of days...but it feels like forever.
Things that have kept me going so far:
-gum (keeps your mouth producing saliva-very good)
-cold water
-Popsicles
-tapioca pudding
-Milo (cold chocolate milk)
-chloraseptic mouth spray (at first I thought it might burn too much, but it has really worked out well)
More to come tomorrow. I hope I start feeling better. According to the doctor, day 3 through day 7 is the worst. I hope I start progressing. I have been drinking tons of water and keeping myself pretty hydrated. Other than that, I can't go anywhere...I have been laying on the couch all night and day, drinking liquid vicodin and falling in out of sleep.
