I'm currently sick with strep! 4th time in a year, doc said maybe it's time to get the tonsils out. I'm not sure I'm sold on the idea - outside of the last 2ish years I feel like I don't get strep all that often. Anyone else have their tonsils out as an adult? What was your experience?

On the good side of things: It literally changed my life. I had no idea how poorly I had been sleeping, and once I did have some healing, and started getting good, consistent sleep, many of the things I struggled with just suddenly disappeared. I didn’t have the rapid mood swings. I didn’t struggle with anger. I could think more clearly, and focus on tasks. Life was truly a fundamentally different experience for me.

Interesting, thank you for sharing this.
