My tonsils were removed nearly 8 weeks ago now. It originally started with a really low-grade sore throat on and off all summer last year then turned into something a bit more raging. Just before it went really bad I noticed a lump almost the size of a kidney bean on my left tonsil and at that point went to the doctor. Doctor originally gave me -anti-inflammatories - didn't work. I was out of the country for a month, saw another doctor while I was away who gave me antibiotics, didn't work. Came back home , went to my doctor and he gave me a referral straight away. NHS Consultant said the tonsils would have to come out. I wasn't too keen on that, so saw a private Consultant who said the same thing but also mentioned cancer. Scared me. Now tonsils have been removed (with the (NHS) it was a horrible recovery with bleeding but the lump was biopsied and nothing. Now I am 90% of the way there. I had the funny nasal voice for a bit and it's still there but only the odd dodgy word or two or sentence now. I only went back to jogging this week and that seems fine. I also had a bit of old blood come up with mucus yesterday as I've just had a cold too but that seems fine now. I am still off the orange juice and spicy and really crunchy foods but otherwise OK.I really lost my taste but now can taste everything even if it quite weak sometimes. I had my first night out last night but couldn't drink the Prosecco that was served- it stang the back of my tongue.
I was given mouthwash by the hospital which I took full strength. I also was given Hydrogen peroxide after the bleeding and took it full strength although I understand you can dilute it. I bought Cordosyl as well when the hospital stuff ran out before the end of what they'd prescribed.

I just had a nodule removed two days ago. Bothering me for a month, several doctors later got it out. Sent to lab for cancer results of course. we'll see what happens.

Did you dilute the peroxide, or use full strength. Just curious because I would like to try this.
