I eat pretty healthy. And i am a sack rat cause no one wants to be around me if I don't get at least 8 to 9 hours. My tonsil keeps getting pockets (sorry to much info) (and kinda gross) of stuff which cause these infections. I haven't discussed this yet with my Dr but plane too just want have a lot of info when i go in.
