Welcome to the forum Steve. Mine was right tonsil, too. You certainly will learn a lot from the others here - I do. I get more information from them than I get from my doctors. We're lucky to have found this forum. Keep all informed, and when another symptom/problem arises, check out the forum and I bet you can find others who have had the same problems, and their solutions. Good luck.
