Removing tonsils and smoking

Hey, Soon in a couple of months I will be going under the knife to get rid of my tonsils.
I hear there is immense pain for a week give or take after the surgery. I know if I was high it would significantly reduce the pain.. The problem is I don't know if it is safe to smoke while my tonsils are healing.
I thought of cooking brownies but later dismissed it because you can not eat solids for the week after the surgery, it's simply too painful.
Any thoughts/experiences?
Even an experience smoking weed after any type of surgery in your mouth or even after a tongue piercing would be appreciated.

I had my tonsils removed when I was 15. There wasnt really any pain at all unless I tried to eat.

none, that's how you get labled a drug seeker- you are supposed to be stupid, doctors view anyone w/ knowledge as threats.
Anyways, if you are in pain, call and ask what you should do, don't worry about pissing off the staff, its their job, and the doctor's fault for not providing adequate pain relief.
Either he'll give you another script, or he'll tell you to take some extra doses and call later if it still hurts.
This said, dont be too upset if you get fucked anyways. I've seen plenty of people w/ adnoidectomies get codeine, shitty but true :-(

Yeah, don't ask for a specific drug.
just phone or go in and whinge that even eating icecream hurts and you can't stand the pain.
Also, say that you aren't sleeping because swallowing saliva hurts and keeps you awake. The doctor will probably give you something stronger then.
Be very polite, don't ask for drugs specifically, just ask if there is anything he can do, etc.
Also, you are going to be eating a lot of icecream after the op, as it is really soothing, so buy a nice icecream but with NO lumps or chips in it. When I got mine done @ 15 my mum bought me my favourite (cookie dough) and it was agony, the dough ripped my throat apart.
Get vanilla or a choc chip with very small chips like Haagen Dazs Belgian Chocolate

I had my tonsils removed also, when i was around 14~ For me it was fucking dreadful, I was off school for 6 months.. I was in immense pain for months... I couldn't eat properly for a long fucking time... Apparently the older you get the more painful it can be.
but i wouldn't recommend smoking, it can't be good. get some codeine..

Those capsules might very well have been for pain.
The rectal doses of many drugs can be very much higher than the oral doses, and some docs aren't that familiar with them and give you way too low of a dose cuz their ignoramuses... like tylenol for example... seen that alot

grind the bud into a powder, then simmer it on low heat in some half and half. In theory it should work. Personally though I hate being high when I'm in pain, it just makes me notice the pain more.

You could simmer up some cannaoil... It'll last longer than the cream and you just stir it into anything. Drinking oil seems nasty, but it's not bad when it's gonna get you nice and high.

If you have an ice-cream maker, you could make weed ice cream. I guess take a standard vanilla custard ice cream recipe, but infuse the cream with weed/thc beforehand...and voila. Or else you could probably swirl some melted cannabutter in ice cream. Sounds yum, actually.
Good luck with your surgery, hope it goes well and you heal fast.
