Answers:
I still have mine...but a friend of mine just got hers out...she's 21...i hear its worse the older you get. She was out of work for at least a week and a half. She said they give you pain meds, but it doesn't help the pain...her throat is still sore and its been almost 2 weeks. She said it's like strep times 10. If I were you, I would see about getting them out now, while you're younger. There can be more complications when you get older.Health Question & Answer

You already know how much it hurts with strep throat. Just think of that. Your doc will either knock you out or put you under a local pain killer an just cut out the tonsils.
Never had my tonsils out but I have had a couple of root canals but to top it all off was when I had brain surgery. I woke up the next day with a head ache you wouldn't believe.Health Question & Answer
