[quote=Anonymous]Best decision we ever made to have both removed. DS had repeated strep throat issues for a year. Doctors recommended the surgery. The surgery went fine - they warned us to stay ahead on the meds and to wake up at night to give them - they were right. one night we let him sleep thru and he woke up in so much pain - crying and screaming which made it even worse - getting him to take the meds at that point with a sore overly emotional kids was a 2 person job. He was 5 years old at the time. While everyone told us cold foods and drink for him - he actually found that bothered his throat more and preferred foods and drink that were room temperature. It was a hard week but got better after that. I thought I would only need to take a week off work and him a week off school - truth be told we really need 10-14 days before things were 100% back to normal. Best thing about it - he now rarely, if ever gets sick.[/quote]
