- 0930: hydrocodone/APAP 7.5/500mg + penicillin
Hard to swallow; changing swabs every 15 minutes; deep ache around lower jaw, moving from back to front and occasionally to roof of mouth; raw feeling of holes; inside of cheeks feel very bruised; chin and tongue still numb (no drool though)
- 1130: 800mg ibuprofen
Incredibly uncomfortable; can't get away from pain and thinking 1330 is really a long time to go; ice packs helping slightly
- 1330: hydrocodone/APAP 7.5/500mg
Ache dissipated after ibuprofen and appetite returned; still painful to swallow and to open mouth - managed some yoghurt and mashed banana (Reubs would've been proud); totally spaced out on hydrocodone and decided to watch House (the first two episodes of Season 3, so I had more Vicodin than he did); the Wife came back from a run and was a silent comforting presence
-1630 penicillin
love that I'm warding off infections with penicillin
- 1730 hydrocodone/APAP 7.5/500mg
I could get used to this stuff - feeling slightly more chipper, though very drowsy; optimistic that I could get through to 1900 or later without ibuprofen and pace myself through the night; desperately want something savoury and that doesn't taste of yoghurt/blood/cotton swab mixture
