Lut,

Indra will certainly be in my prayers.

One of the lesser-discussed side-effects of these ops at an "older" age is ear-ache. My hubby had terrible earache after having his tonsils removed in his late 20's, and my son complained more about his ears than his mouth when he had EIGHT impacted wisdon teeth removed earlier this year. Make sure your doctor will give her pain meds for her ears if they are sore, and not just her throat.

With my hubby, the earache only set in a couple of days after he was released from hospital, and I gave him "Aurone" eardrops - I am sure there is an equivalent where you are.

Sorry to ramble a bit, but earache seems to be an unknown side-effect of throat and mouth surgery.

(((HUGS)))
