Trisha had her adnoids removed first and then a few years later her tonsils.

She has always had enlarged tonsils but last year they started causing

trouble with her breathing at night. She didn't have many throat infections

just that they kept getting bigger and bigger. When they removed her tonsils

last her snoring lessend dramatically, she slept better and she had less

colds. Trisha could never keep the ear tubes in, a few days to few weeks

after having them inserted they would just come out on their own. After

removing the tonsils she also had much fewer ear infections. She went from

having over 20 ear infections a year to having only about 4 ear infections in

the last year. That's a big improvement for her.

, had her tonsils and adenoids removed at the same time. Her

tonsils were enlarged and often infected, and her adenoids were also very

large. I don't know anyone who had only their adenoids removed so I can't

help you there. Why is the doc recommending their removal? Does he think it

will help lessen ear infections? I would want to know why he thinks her

adenoids should come out.

Hi. Our Dr. did the same thing. Removed adnoids while inserting

tubes. He said her tonsils were large, but not abnormally so, so he

left them in. She had no problems with recovery.

Good luck.

had a new set of ear tubes put in and his adenoids removed when he

was almost 3. Since then, it's cut down on congestion and he's slept much

more soundly (when he sleeps).
