Maria-
You did ask a question a few posts ago if anyone else had a similar experience with tonsils. My tonsils were removed when I was in 8th grade. The left one regrew. I'm not sure why the doctors were reluctant to remove it again while I was in my 30's or 40's. They mentioned it was a tougher surgery when you are an adult, but when they got around to it when I hit 50 I didn't find the tonsilectomy that stressfull or painful. They weren't expecting the results to come back positive and hadn't prepared us for the possibility of cancer since I did't smoke and had no other symptoms. I am praying you have good news tomorrow on your biopsy results, but you might consider having the regrown tonsils removed anyway.The peace of mind might be worth a week of throat pain. Good luck to you! - Kris
