One month later...

I'm much better now without my tonsils than I was with them, and I'm not entirely healed yet either!

It has taken longer for me to heal because I had a "bleeder" that had to be cauterized. I was in quite a bit of pain, most of which was felt in my left ear and the left side of my throat.

I can breathe much easier without those gigantic tonsils in the way and am looking forward to being totally healed in a few more weeks. I'm going to try a few foods that used to irritate my tonsils and see what happens.

The worst part of the whole tonsil ordeal was seeing the bill that arrived two nights ago. If I didn't have any insurance I'd be worse off than I am now. Instead of my $5k max out of pocket expense, I'd be in debt well over $14k! (I nearly fell over when I saw the bill, no exaggeration.)
