So guys I finalllyyy got a doctors appointment yesterday ..But had to drive 40 minutes to get there...Anyways i've always had problems with getting sick alot since I can remember...Mostly strep throat(spelling?)...So when I was in 5th grade I had surgery ...They took my adnoids(spelling?)out..But not my tonsils...Well since I still have the problem...Now im having to go back under to get my tonsils taken out im so scared and mad because they should have took them both out at the same time...I can still remember the problems I had after having the first surgery and now they tell me that this time is going to be worse because im older..So does anyone here know what it feels like after getting your tonsils out ..At a older age?...

My mom had hers taken out when she was in college, and she said it hurt. I'm not sure how to relate that pain to how it feels for a kid, though, as i've never had it done.

Sorry you aren't feeling well and have to have the surgery. :( you get lots of ice cream!

Jillian, I had my tonsils taken out when I was 9 years old. I really don't remember much pain, maybe like a scratchy throat. The worst part for me was recovering from the anesthesia, because me and anesthesia don't mix, lol. I threw up for the first day, and I had some problems taking my fluids like I was supposed to. You'll be layed up in bed for a few days, don't get me wrong, but the pain isn't that bad.

I was 19 when I had my tonsils out and, whilst it did hurt at the time and immediately afterwards, it was definately worth it in the long run.
I had a few complications following so that may have contributed to the pain but you will get pain meds following and there are far more painful things in life!

I got mine taken out 3 years ago (i was 23).. I wont lie, it hurt like a health forum! But much better now I got tonsilitis 2 or 3 times a month since I was at school and the doctor eventually referred me to get them out!

It is sore but you get lots of painkillers and if you take them regularly then the pain never gets unbearable. It is sore but the best thing to eat after it is toast to get rid of all the crap in your throat.

Good luck!
