[QUOTE="Andy, post: 401794, member: 5096"] Thank you everyone! That is what I thought - having tonsils remove may help lesson the severity but you still can get strep. This family has it every time you turn around. Can't figure out how - and when one gets it, they all go on antibiotics to prevent and/or treat something there but not yet showing. The mom went as far as to track down another mom from our kid's neighborhood Christmas party over a week after the party just to let her know H and a neighbor girl A who did not go to the party both had strep and that L was the only common denominator (She went to A's home after the party) so I know she keeps close tabs on it. She wanted to know if the other kid had it and to let all us parents know H came down with strep so we can watch for it in our kids. I think H overheard and misunderstood something. She may have told him that having his tonsils out will stop this. He is 14 years old and the older you are I think the harder it is to recover from having tonsils out? [/QUOTE]
