Can you share some tonsillectomy horror stories?

A common one is about the pain. People often say it's way more painful than they thought it would be. Some describe it as a constant throbbing pain in the throat that just won't ease up.

I heard of a patient who had a tonsillectomy. The medical team was very professional. They made sure the patient was comfortable before and after the surgery. The patient was a bit nervous initially, but during the recovery, he noticed that his breathing improved. He used to have trouble breathing at night sometimes due to enlarged tonsils. After the operation, that problem was gone. He was able to sleep better and felt more energetic during the day.

Sure. My friend had a tonsillectomy. Before the operation, he often had tonsillitis and sore throats. After the successful tonsillectomy, he no longer suffered from those frequent infections. He could eat whatever he liked without the fear of tonsil - related pain.

One horror story I came across was a person who had a tonsillectomy and for days after, they had a really bad taste in their mouth that wouldn't go away. They also had a high fever that persisted for a long time. The swelling in their throat was so severe that they couldn't speak properly for weeks. It was a really difficult time for them as they expected a relatively smooth recovery but instead faced all these unexpected and unpleasant issues.

Sure. One person I know said that after the initial pain of tonsillectomy recovery as an adult, their quality of life improved. They used to have frequent tonsil infections before, but after the surgery, they no longer had to worry about that. They felt healthier and more energetic in the long run.

Sure. I know someone who had a tonsillectomy as an adult. It was mainly because of chronic tonsillitis that just wouldn't go away. After the surgery, the first few days were really tough. There was a lot of pain when swallowing, but the doctor prescribed some good painkillers. After about a week, the pain started to subside gradually, and within two weeks, they were feeling much better.

I had my tonsillectomy a few months ago. The first couple of days were tough with some pain and discomfort while swallowing. But I followed the doctor's instructions carefully. I drank lots of cold fluids and ate soft foods like ice cream and yogurt. By the end of the first week, the pain started to subside significantly. After two weeks, I was almost back to normal and could eat my regular diet again. It was a great feeling to fully recover and be free from the recurrent tonsil problems I had before.

Pain is a big one. The pain after a tonsillectomy can be excruciating.

One horror story is about an old, abandoned mansion. People say that at midnight, strange noises come from it. Lights flicker in the empty rooms, and there are reports of shadowy figures moving around. It's said that a family was brutally murdered there decades ago, and their spirits still haunt the place.

Sure. One IT horror story is about a company that had all its data encrypted by ransomware. The backup systems also failed, and they had to pay a huge sum to get the decryption key. It was a nightmare as they lost a lot of important business data during that time.
