My worst nightmare has arrived. I woke up this morning with what feels like a painful lump in my throat. Even swallowing water and my own saliva is excruciating, let alone solids. My mouth feels tight. Turned to xylocaine to numb the pain, but the viscous solution tasted like swallowing a tablespoon of saliva. I threw up as soon as i swallowed it, so it ended up just numbing my mouth but not my throat. But i will not cry now because i know this nightmare will get worse.
I slept last night, finally at 3 am. The dormicum tablet doc gave took 4 hours to work its magic. What a slob, doing a shit job like that!
I'm just going to lie in today, and try to will my throat into feeling better. Good luck, me!
