finally got into the ENT today because my lymph nodes have been killing me and slightly bleeding. I've been have crazy tonsil stones coming out. thanks to doctor Google I was convinced I had cancer.

went into my appointment with the mind set I would need my tonsils out. and Yup! they are calling back next week to set up surgery.

other than having my wisdom teeth pulled when I was in high school I've never had surgery. anyone else had tonsils out as an adult? tips? experiences? how long did recovery last for you?
