other tonsil related problems. Just last year he went to some sleep
specialists and other Adenoid and Tonsil specialists. When all the tests
were done - it was found that he was not getting hardly ANY oxygen during
the night because of the size of his Tonsils/Adenoids! They said it could
potentially cause severe problems to his health later on because of the
continued lack of oxygen to his brain and other organs every night. He went
ahead and had them taken out and has noticed quite a difference. (and so has
his wife - who can now get more sleep at night!) One of the things he was
told was that some people just have abnormally large Tonsils and Adenoids
for their bodies. Just FYI. Hope that helps.

I guess my logical brain says you can't shrink tonsils, just like you
couldn't shrink a toe that was too big. :) I know the oregano works
for infections and brings down swelling, but she doesn't have any. I
will take your advice Jan and be very careful.
Ramona:
From what I have learned, the tonsils and adenoids tends to go through
a growth spurt when children are five and again when they are around
12-14 years of age. This is why many children start having sleep
problems related to tonsils when they start kindergarten. Some
children can grow into their tonsils. It then has to become a quality
of life issue. My daughter has already had a rough 4 years, and it
seems to be worsening. She would have 3-5 more years of barely
functioning and no guarantee that it would resolve. And since me, her
mom, have some of the largest tonsils around, her outlook doesn't look
so good. :) We went to Dr. Pfeffer (Pediatric Sleep Specialists) for
her sleep study. She gives you a very thorough report and goes
through it with you step by step. I have never had so much thorough
information and explanations from a doctor. Refreshing. I will let
you know about the oregano.
If anyone has more information or ideas, I would love to hear.
Thanks.
