I had mine out in my late 20's. It really felt bad the first two days after and I was taking that liquid pain medicine all the time. Dont rush back to eating crunchy/hard foods too soon. Over a week after my surgery I was craving bacon. It felt like broken glass going down.

Who are you seeing JOAT? If Dr. Reiff sent you then it is probably the same guy I had a consultation with last year and is supposed to be the best around (forget his name). I was supposed to have the same surgery as well some bridges put in the back of my throat. Guy was up front and said it would be the worst few days of my life because of the pain and if I could find him, I would most likely try to kill him. 2 week recovery time. Said if I was a kid it would be no big deal but as adults it hurts like a mutha fugger. Guess the bridges inserted in the back of my throat would have something to do with that also though. Glad he was honest with me because I pussed out.

Good Luck...let me know how it turns out.

It was a referral from Dr. Reiff an I'm seeing Dr. Langford who's office I've been going to since I was about ten. Dr. Chikes, recently retired, did three ear surgeries on me in my teens.

What bothers me is this, I went to Dr. Langford about a year ago and asked about this same surgery and he said he didn't think it would make any sense or much of a difference. Now, because I was referred by a Dr all the sudden it makes sense? Nothing has happened in the last year, I seriously doubt my anatomy has changed since my last visit.

Anyway, I may have to double down on the Loritab for a few days. However, I'm really looking forward to the end result.

How old are you, JOAT? I know that once you're grown, tonsils are very vascular and very engorged in their little cavities. I've heard of doctors refusing to remove them for 25 year olds, even with PTA, because the procedure and recovery are so difficult.

Good luck to you and follow the orders on the prescription. Don't stop taking meds just because you feel better. Finish them per doc orders.

      Who will blow it Sunday?

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      They are 1 and 9 against the  Bucs in the past 10 games. the Panthers go as young goes.  QB1 ‘s are suppose to dictate and overcome  and elevate Everything the QB does affects every part of the team and Bryce is uneven. Canales and Bryce have  an uneven relationship too  as for Evero, the only thing that might save him is the injury to Baker’s left shoulder and oline injuries. I don’t even know how he is out there   I really feel their season ended last Sunday Canales’ division record isn’t great   Getting owned by the Saints and Bucs isn’t a good look

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By Jacabee · Posted

      Frankly surprised by the amount of people that want to hang Evero. This was a defense that was almost universally considered the bottom of the barrel before this season started. We’ve managed to stat our way to the middle of the pack whatever that means. Those critical of the zone schemes, what do you want? When even JC is getting burnt one on one by Olave you have little choice. There definitely have been moments where the zone blitz stuff has bit us. That said, are the third string linebackers (and nick Scott) covering poo anyway? This unit had only conceded 10 points going into the fourth quarter despite a litany of bullshit penalties on both sides. Them over performing is the biggest reason we are still in playoff contention.
