[quote=Anonymous]My younger sister and I had strep constantly, 4-6 times a year -- I finally had my tonsils out in college and not a single case of strep since even though my three kids have each had it at least twice. With the benefit of hindsight, I'd much rather have had my tonsils out sooner rather than be on God knows how many courses of antibiotics. Antibiotics are life-saving but also come with a price both for individuals and for society. And having my tonsils out in college was no joke (especially as I had them done under local). The recovery was a bitch. But I would do it all over again especially if the alternative was multiple courses of antibiotics every year.[/quote]
