Night 9 I was able to sleep through the night, but I woke up in so much pain. I immediately went for my vicodin. Day 10 I was able to eat some more foods! I ate some shepard's pie ok and even had some frosting and caske! I was so happy and so hungry! My main food still were pudding, but I was happy to be expanding out! I also felt my scabs for the first time. I think I swallowed a piece on day 10, but that it then re-scabbed later. I think you can see it in the pictures. Day 10 I also moved off my recovery position on the couch and back into my bedroom since I could sleep through the night. I also started taking my vicodin about every 6 hours, even a little more and did ok. Tomorrow would be my last day of prednisone as well. I continued to get better at talking and I thought my tongue was feeling better. However, as I ate or especially when I tried to eat a banana my tongue immediately got sore and I couldn't move it very much again and therefore couldn't speak well anymore. I felt a exponential recovery effort coming, but still had to be careful not to push it too much.
