I've got to tell you, I was pleased to come across this post as I sit here with a damn golf ball for a Uvula. Im on a submarine - I've drank alot, but this has never happened, so when I woke up with the worlds largest uvula today, I was freaking out; good to hear that its my own stupidity (likely), and nothing else... last night was a liver-killer

So you were on a drinking binge the night before and snored like a madman for a few hours until your uvula enlarged? Shame on you! Cut back on the Jack Daniels, will ya?! :)

Once when I was training as an opera singer at university, in a vocal pedagogy class we watched a video of a camera on a tube go up a guy's nose and down the back of his throat to show the larnyx as it functioned, and all the while he was singing "Streets of Laredo." I asked the teacher "is that the place babies come from?"

The larnyx is ugly - trust me - don't go there!

Well I am glad you're alive! :)

hmmm that's kinda cool. I wish I could see it.

I've learned not to google symptoms and stuff or I convince myself that I'm pregnate or dying.

2007-04-15T10:33:00.000-05:00

Wasn't this an episode on Seinfeld? Oh wait that was vulva. Well I gotta run and go look at my uvula in the mirror. I hope I have good-sized one.

2007-04-14T08:10:00.000-05:00

so, was heavy drinking involved the day before??? ACtually, that happened to my sister...she had strep throat or something, but she said it was terribly disgusting. Perhaps you can just lie around and watch the snow today?

ummm, never happened to me, but i did get a bad infection that ate through parts of my tonsils so they look like those honeycomb cereals...

~be well.

2007-04-13T20:06:00.000-05:00

you're in good company.

In one of those Lewis & Martin movies, Jerry had an allergic reaction to girls and it would cause his uvula to swell. funny!

actually, that happened to me before...it went away within a day. but it hurt like hell because it felt like you were swallowing it and it was hanging on to the roof of your mouth for dear life. :)

Um... is there a critical length of time for swoll...

2007-04-13T19:30:00.000-05:00

Um... is there a critical length of time for swollen uvulas? Like, if your uvula is "swollen" for more than four hours should you seek medical attention?

It sounds like a line from The Simpsons - My uvula...

2007-04-13T15:03:00.000-05:00

It sounds like a line from The Simpsons - My uvula hurts!

I'm just gagging on drip lately. I hate this time of year - it wrecks my sinuses right up.

Feel better!!

2007-04-13T14:13:00.000-05:00

2007-04-13T10:27:00.000-05:00

Um, nasty.

Hope your uvula is better now. That just sounds all kinds of wrong.

Oh that's interesting, mine has never been swollen...

2007-04-13T10:01:00.000-05:00

Oh that's interesting, mine has never been swollen, but if it does get that way I won't panic. I sure hope that you get better and soon!

2007-04-13T09:37:00.000-05:00

Something similar happened to me tho other night. I woke up gagging, felt like I had swollowed a dust bunny or something. Looked in the mirror and I could kind of make out something in the back of my throat. So I caughed a few more time and my cat flew out...
