it's not painful though

it's just that no straws for a while and i can't open my mouth wider than a couple inches because it just won't go and so i have to cut up food into very small pieces

the worst bit is 1. iv/before 2. the fact that you're bleeding for several hours afterwards and 3. the recovery period somewhat later once the painkillers are running out

not too much pain really, mostly inconvenience. which makes me irritated and crazy-ish.
