[QUOTE="Sue C, post: 117055, member: 87"] OK, Melissa is SUPPOSED to have her tonsils removed as soon as possible. She was told this by an ear/nose/throat dr in Fall. She refuses, saying she is too scared that she will not wake up from the anesthetic. Anyway, the dr told her to expect to miss 7-10 days of work!!! He also said it would be the worst sore throat of her life. Also that she'd be eating cold things aftwards, popsicles, etc. But he added that she will be so glad to get them removed because she wouldn't get the sore throats anymore and her throat would have more airway. Her tonsils are HUGE--they touch each other. I myself had my tonsils out in my senior year of high school during Spring Break. I felt lousy for about a week. Adults do much worse than kids do when having their tonsils out. But it is something we can get through. I did it, and I don't do well with pain. sue [/QUOTE]
