Allison's Tonsillectomy Story

Well today is day 9 since I got my tonsils out..... and it SUCKS!!! I haven't really been able to eat anything or do anything or say anything. :( I went in to Castleview Hospital in Price, Utah on June 3rd at 8:30 a.m. The procedure went well however in Recovery my whole Body started hurting they said it was probably just the IV going through my veins. Well My muscles continued to Cramp and kept getting worse so Thursday Morning Austin called the doctors office to see if they knew what was going on. They assumed that it was because i was nervous going into my surgery so I probably tightened up during the Anesthesia and so they prescribed me some muscle relaxers. The Muscle relaxers didn't help and by 11:00 that night I couldn't move at all. So Austin Carried me to the car and off to the ER we went. After a few hours and lots of tests they found out that due to the anesthesia I developed Rahbdo (That's the short version). It is Muscle Fiber Breakdown. Anyhow... I spent the next few days in the hospital hooked up to an IV getting Morphine doses every hour until by body 'got better' (a.k.a I could walk on my own and stuff). So I went home and now am recovering from my tonsillectomy like i should have been this whole time.
