my throat
is fucked still. my tonsils, though painless, are swollen constantly. sometimes worse than others. its causing sleep apnea and other shitty issues. difficulty swallowing (shut up), sleeping...i'm up several times a night do to the sleep apnea, just shitty stuff. i went to urgent care and was given a prescription for prednisone. i never got it filled. i dont like the idea of going on steroids just yet.
i have an appointment on Tuesday with the Ear Nose and Throat Specialist for a surgical consult. i really do hope and pray that i do not have to have my tonsils removed as an adult.
"80% of the people who get them removed in their 20's would suggest you just suffering for the rest of your life over the misery they had to endure for the 2-3 weeks after their surgeries
doctor's really don't recommend this surgery to people over a certain age for a reason
*i've had constant issues with my tonsils / allergies my entire live and have almost begged my doctor to take mine out and she still refuses to allow me to do so*"
"it wasn't a pleasant experience at all, which is true for most people over the age of like 15
good luck
you'll be lying in bed for like 2 weeks wishing for death
oh and be prepared to take midnight trips to the hospital for high fevers and other things"
just a few bits of feedback i've received.
here's some more good times i've researched.
fuck the internet and it's overwhelming amount of nerve racking information.
