I have got my tonsils out 2 days ago and the pain is outstandable,but its good because i have went threw experience, I eat only semolina except its not a sweet one its a salty semolina, it matches the taste of your throat. Its made with water and some salt added and bit of fat on top. My advice is don't eat food in large chunks it may damage the sore place... Try drnking every 5 minutes, also sleep whenever you can. Its good to sleep, I haven't vomited or bled once. Your tonsils heal slow so take holidays from hard work stay in bed and drink alot of tea, tea without milk, tea with honey that's all to drink. if you,have any questions just ask
