Day 2 of recovery going well. Only soreness is related to the tubes and such. I used Percoset to sleep better last night but don’t need it during the day. I am having the hardest time NOT talking, but hopefully this weekend I’ll get through the worst of it. I’m looking forward to my follow-up appointment so I can see what the doctor thinks of my voice quality. It was hoarse (but very alto) before, so I’m hoping to only get rid of the hoarseness part. If I was a real singer I can see how this can be scary, but the before and after photos of the vocal cords made it clear that this is the right thing to do. Those doctors are amazing, and the tools they have are even more incredible.
