Same here for the appendix. Had it out when I was 17...kept getting gut aches. Then one day I was hurting so bad, it was a trip to the er, and right into surgery. Spent more times in surgery for busted bones while racing my bikes, and snowmobiles than I could recall off the top of my head. The leg was the worst requiring around 5 surgeries over a year to install, and remove a bag of metal.my tonsils are intact
never had any issues with them ever
wish i could say the same about that stupid appendix that put me into the hospital once
