Guest guest Posted June 20, 2008 Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 My son had his ENT evaluation today and his tonsils and adenoids are enormous. He does not snore and doesnt have sore throats so that is not a concern at this point. However he has no extra space for the shifting needed with orthodontics. She said his tonsils and adenoids were not inflamed or infected. He had extra tissue on them... Has anyone ever had this? Were there other options than surgery? He is so scared. I actually had to have him gets " nervous meds " at the doc when she was jsut talking about him needing the surgery. He gets pale and sometimes has to lay down when he thinks of it.. I cant even imagine how to get him TO the hosptial. He is 12 but he is 5ft 7 and 160 lbs of muscle so there is no way I can force him to do anything. Any ideas?
