about

My name is Marissa, you may call me anything you like though, as long as it's not offensive, obviously.

I haven't been on in quite some time and I'm going to try harder to come on more.

If you have a question for me personally, just leave it in my inbox and I'll answer it as soon as I get it.

Just remember that everyone has something special about each of them, and if other people can't see that, it's their loss not yours.

Sorry if this is long.
Some of you might remember the question that someone asked about getting their tonsils out on Thursday. Well, I got them out to day. =]
My throat hurts so bad. It feels like there's a golf ball in my throat and it's really hard to swallow.
They gave me three different medicines and I took them all about an hour ago, but nothing has happened. If anything, I'm worse. They also told me to put a cold ice pack on my throat, but that's not helping so far.
Does anyone who's had their tonsils out know of anything that works to help stop the pain?
And what would be better to eat on the first day -- warm or cold foods...or does it matter?

well i had my tonsils out and i had like a warm water pack i put around my throat and it made it feel better. ummm maybe warm milk could help it or just regular cuz it coats your throat. as for foods. for the first couple days stick with ice cream and pudding and jello and popscicles. wait till you get the ok from your doctor to eat pasta and scrambled eggs cuz it might hurt your throat even more. feel better!
