Guest guest Posted June 29, 2001 Report Share Posted June 29, 2001 Hi all, just remembered....... Yesterday when was at the Drs. he told me something I didn't know....But hey.... I'm not out much. LOL He said they no longer like to remove he tonsils because they have found that they produce an antibody that helps to protect against HIV. It was very interesting to me.. Wonder if they have more antibodies we don't know about. Do you all still have your tonsils???? I had mine out when I was 2. Hugs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was admitted to hosp when about 6 yrs old to have them removed, then a strep throat invaded the ward and we were all sent home - I still have my tonsils!!
