My son is 3 and a half and has had tonsillitis constantly for most of his life. We can no longer medicate him as he is allergic to all of the medication ( i mean all we have tried everything) I have just made him an appointment with a great ENT in Sydney. But I am very worried.
As with your question, I can say that I had mine out at 11years old after suffering for years. The operation was fine but the post surgery pain was not too good. Had 2 weeks of very painful eating and drinking, but was well worth it. Since then I am never really sick I am 26 years old and even in cold/ flu season I don't get sick. So is worth the pain.
I guess I should heed my own words. I am just not looking forward to the pain he will be in after.
Good luck
