Hey Everybody! :)
On Monday July 19th I will be getting my tonsils removed because I've been having to many sore throats and getting sick from them. They have gotten enlarged. Also it has made my psoriasis flare up all the time and seems like it never gets better. Hopefully by getting them removed my psoriasis will improve. I will let you all know how it goes. If you all don't hear from me these next 2 weeks you all know what happened to recover. Talk to you all again soon and Take care! :D

Hi Amy,
Wow! big day tomorrow!! :D
Just the fact it might help alleviate psoriasis flares has to make the recovery of this so worth it. Still I know you'll go thru some uncomfortable periods so hang in there!
Do keep us posted!

Amy,
You are going to be so happy to be rid of those pesky things. Stock up on your favorite ice cream, jello, yogart and pudding. Enjoy the rest and get better soon!!
XOXO


Good luck!
I had mine yanked last year.
I know Annie means well, but forget the iced cream, yogurt and pudding. It is a myth. Anything that is milk based will cause mucas in your mouth. Very tough to swallow after getting the tonsils out.


Some people don't have a problem with it. If you do, the jello and popsicle routine is the way to go. Nothing acidy.


Good luck Amy, and keep us posted!


I lived on 7-11 slurpees for 2 weeks.

Get Well Soon

probably hurts about the same!


Hi Everybody! :)
Thanks so much for all of your warm wishes. I really appreciate them very much. The surgery went well. I've been resting most of this week and only drinking water, apple juice, slurpees, milkshakes, little bit of soup, and eating ice cream. Haven't started eating jello yet but will soon hehe.. Still hurts a bit when I swallow but it is improving. I have also noticed that my psoriasis has improved a bit too. No more flaring now like it was before. Now it's brownish colored now which is a good sign. I wonder if it's really from the tonsil removal or from this sudden liquid diet I'm on now. Whatever it is.. looking better for now. Because of not eating what I normally eat this past week. I also lost 3 or 4 pounds which is good in a way because I want to lose weight but watch me put it back on when I can eat again haha... Well, thank you all again for all the support and get well wishes. I will keep you all posted on how I'm doing in the coming days or week whenever I go on this board again. Hope you all are having a great summer and talk to you all again later. Take care! :D
