First sickie report

(1/4) > >>

Des:
For the past two weeks I have had a very sore throat, it was getting worse as each day passed. My doctor had me on antibiotics but they didn't touch the sides so he had me have a Ct of my throat. They found a lump on my right tonsil and feared a tumor so I was sent to a specialist. He examined the CT and determined it was an abcsess on the right tonsil which had spread into the surrounding soft tissue. He numbed the area with an injection then used a syringe to remove over 10ml of gunk, then he used a suction device to remove more stuff, he then lanced the swollen area and let it drain for 30 minutes, he finished off with a pair of special forceps to remove any remaining infection. That was yesterday, today I am nearly back to 100%, I can eat normal meals again and am virtually pain free, the wonders of modern medicine. I am on a course of steroids and very strong antibiotics and he gave me a script for pain killers, I have not had to use the pain killers.

Des - back to normal administrator but still eating ice cream  :)

Glad to hear you're doing better. The advances in medical care are quite astounding, aren't they? Here's hoping you have a speedy recovery and never-ending tub of ice cream!  ;D
