Can anyone tell me what it feels like? I never had mine out and I have been fighting a sore throat for almost 3 weeks now....my ears feel clogged and my throat hurts when I swallow. It is sore way in the back.....what do you think?

:rude: <Say ahhhhhhh!

My mom works for an ENT and she says it would be brutal for some one your age to get them out. 3 weeks recovery. Drink some brandy ya big wuss.

:biglaugh: :biglaugh: :biglaugh:
Sounds like you need a very complex procedure....

It's called an Addadictome and can only be performed by the most skilled surgeons. :laughs: :laughs:

Seriously though, never had it. Hope you feel better soon. It's fishing time!

Sounds like you need a Doctor.
Only fisherman here....

Bigfish, Send two plugs to me now & call me in the morning... :hihi: ..Seriously I hope you feel better..Go see a doc...

Had mine out at 18, 22 years ago. No solid food for a couple of days. It hurts, but better than being sick.

My 7 year old had them out last year and bounced back in a couple of days.

Go see a Dr., bite the bullet and get it done...

Tynan...at my age? :eek: That doesn't make me feel better! :exp:

Had mine out when I was 5, Larry, so I can't remember what tonsilitis feels like ;)

Oh yeah, I forgot to add them to the "things I don't miss" thread :D

:laughs:

I've had ear infections that caused that......there all connected, ears and throat.

I would go see a doctor, they'll give you some antibiotics and you'll feel better in a couple of days

I had mine done last year. Brutal isn't the word for it. first week no solid food. Lost 16#s in 2 weeks. The meds were good though :jump1:

I remember seeing you at the plug thingie. You were dazed and starving. :uhoh: Adults should keep their tonsils.

Larry, any better? Your age, I meant anyone over the age of 20. The recovery time is longer and more painfull the older you get.

Just got back from the Doc.....both ears have some inflamation, infection. :crying: Antibiotic and some drops hopefully will do the trick! :)

That's good to hear Larry. Well it's better than Toncilitus I guess.
I hope you feel better soon.

bigfish.......go the vitamin C route....

Wow, I think I missed my calling....I should become an internet doctor. :D

DR Dad............ ahhh ha ha ha:hs::bl::wave:

ps hey larry the acerola chewable 500 milligram wafers sold at CVS pharmacy is some of the best vitamin C around . 9 of -em fit into
an empty film canister for traveling....eat one per hour as you pee out
2/3 of all you consume. For emergencies wiz a bunch in grapejuice in the blender. ibuprophen (advil) to reduce swelling in throat and maybe a strawberry colada at dunkin donuts too.
