Title: GhostSniper Losing His Tonsils!
Post by: BTs_GhostSniper on January 30, 2005, 02:49:22 am
Hey guys, just wanted to let you know that I will be having surgery to have my tonsils removed on Tuesday, February 1.  Doesn't sound like a big deal, and it's not when you are younger...but it's one of those things that gets very bad the older you get.  I'm 31, and they say at my age it is a very unpleasant experience.  So, I may be drugged up for most of next week and may not be able to grace you all with my presence...which especially sucks cause I'll miss the first week of the FFA Ladder for Season X.  But hey, maybe I'll just get online all drugged up and REALLY piss some people off!  lol[/size]

i cut my toenails today and i'm going to cut my fingernails tomorrow.

;)


nah, seriously... i saw a report on tv yesterday that said that the tonsils are the reason of bad breath in 99% of cases. ::)

maybe I should get my tonsils removed soon then, while I'm young...

And of coarse to rid of that bad breath... ::)

Krush, that won't end the problem. Your breathe will still smell bad, it might be because of all the shit you eat. If you ask me, you should stop, unless you want to join Civic in a "GERMAN SHEISSE VIDEO!" ::)

Hehe... Just messin'. ::lol::

BTW, GS, did you re-enter the military? I've been wonder, since I'm not on GR as much as some people...

I wonder if GS on drugs would make him into a liberal....then again the less intelligent usually fall to the right.

No, I never re-entered the military.  I tried to get back in after Sept 11, but they said I had been out too long to get back in (which I think is total BS because they are forcing people who don't want back in to go on active duty).

But, the Air Force doctor who was supposed to have removed my tonsils in 1995 is the same person who is now my civilian doctor and will be performing the surgery for me.  Just 10 years late.

Also, never had a problem with bad breath, but that is interesting, Civic.  My problem is that I get a bad case of strep twice a year and usually end up in the hospital.  So I figure that having a sore throat for 10 days after this surgery is better than having strep twice a year for the rest of my life!

What are tonsils?


Title: Re: GhostSniper Losing His Tonsils!
Post by: Civrock on January 30, 2005, 12:34:29 pm
it's the anatomical word for "almonds". maybe that says you something.


Title: Re: GhostSniper Losing His Tonsils!
Post by: Toxic::Joka on January 30, 2005, 12:38:18 pm
No. How about giving me an answer instead of mincing around with words?


Title: Re: GhostSniper Losing His Tonsils!
Post by: Civrock on January 30, 2005, 12:43:46 pm
it's the things you have in your throat that most times get infected when you're young and then get removed by surgery.

Doesn't discount the fact that I was, in fact, playing Atari before many of you were born.  Hell, Atari was already pretty much dead by the time any of you 18 to 21 year olds were born.  Man, Kuza, how old did you think I was???[/size]

Tonsils are actually useful yet so many people get them removed.  They obviously are in the body for a reason, not to get removed either.


Title: Re: GhostSniper Losing His Tonsils!
Post by: Civrock on January 30, 2005, 09:29:31 pm
what is the reason?


Title: Re: GhostSniper Losing His Tonsils!
Post by: :MoD:Shade on January 30, 2005, 09:43:31 pm
Reading from your own link about Tonsils it says:

Quote
As with other organs of the lymphatic system, the tonsils act as part of the immune system to help protect against infection. In particular, they are believed to be involved in helping fight off pharyngeal and respiratory tract infections.

They are a Lymph Node meaning:

Quote
Lymph nodes act as filters, with an internal honeycomb of connective tissue filled with lymphocytes that collect and destroy bacteria and viruses. When the body is fighting an infection, these lymphocytes multiply rapidly and produce a characteristic swelling of the lymph nodes.

That's why when you go to the doctors they feel the sides of your throat, if it's puffy or larger then that means your body is fighting off infection.  Without the tonsils that means that there is no place to put the excess lymphocytes so they have to go elsewhere.

Post by: BTs_GhostSniper on January 30, 2005, 11:43:06 pm
Actually, the doctor stressed to me that death is definitely a possibility from this surgery in people my age.  But hey, I can't die...that would leave conservatives voiceless on this forum!!![/size]

Isn't that a little difficult to say considering Bush's invading Afghanistan, managing to completely fail to capture or disable Al-Quieda - Bin laden free (so fortunate as he is a close family friend) and Iraq blown to pieces, Insurgents killing soldiers and civilians every day, america quietly pumping oil out and pumping government money in to its own business's to 'rebuild' iraq... ...

Well, how about Clinton sending me, personally and a lot of my other Ranger buddies, into a shit hole in the Balkans while the rest of Europe wouldn't do anything about their own problem right in their back yard?  Of course there is also Somalia, Haiti, all the other crap in the Balkans, and then for the really BAD stuff he just lobs a few cruise missiles over the fence...real brite guy.

Well, had my tonsils out this morning at 6:45 am U.S. CST Time and I'm still here to talk about it...well, write about it anyways.  Ever so drugged up though....lol.  I'm currently taking Tylox and Demeral, switching between the two every 2 hours for the pain.  The doctors and nurses said my tonsils were "huge" and they were all very impressed by my size (hope that was a reference to tonsil size...lol).  So anyways, I should be online soon to do some more FFA Battles and hopefully regain my title as FFA Grandmaster of the world.  w00t!

Peace.
