Be encouraged!! I’m hoping it will work out for you. I had a bilateral styliodectomy January 7. I’m post operative 2 weeks and doing just fine. I had tons of swelling in my neck and face that slowly subsided. I took 2 weeks off work but the doctor said 3 weeks recovery period is the best. I still can not to no lifting or have any vigorous activity. Because my tonsils were removed I followed that post op with some add ones from the doctor. My surgery was done through the tonsill cavity not the neck. I key for me was that all my medications needed to be liquid because of the swelling. It was really bad that even water if I didn’t drink slowly it went up my nose. The great part is my symptoms is eagle Syndrome are all but gone. I feel like a new person.
The doctor said you can have mock issues up to 3 weeks as your nerves and inflation and having to readjust.
Hope this helps

So happy to hear your symptoms improved and you're on the mend. Do you mind sharing your doctor and where you had your surgery? I see an ENT tomorrow and am convinced I'm in the same boat 🙁 Swallowing has been an issue off and on for a year or so. I assumed I was eating to fast, however two weeks ago I began with a sharp pain on my left side (below my jaw and ear). After researching extensively, I can check yes to all symptoms 🙁 Hoping to her from you 🙂
Where did you have your surgery?
Can I ask who you used for a doctor? What city? I have Eagles syndrome and need surgery.
could you please tell me who you doctor was and what state they are in ?

Yes, huge help thanks. Tonsillectomy 😵. I had that done this past year. That is a painful recovery. I am getting the external surgery. They are also removing cyst from nose. I am so happy to hear your symptoms are gone. I do not know what it is like to live w/o discomfort. Happy for you and happy for me soon. What a rare thing to have.
