Please help me... Is it possible that I STILL stink after the tonsillectomy ?
Heyy, I'm new here. I have nobody to talk to about this so I decided to join.
I'm a 21 year old female and 3 years ago I was a meth addict, for the first 6 months of smoking meth I didn't have any issues, but one day I woke up and noticed a God awful smell and didn't know where it was coming from. I looked in the back of my throat and it was full of stinky tonsil stones. They wouldn't ever go away. I was allergic to the chemicals in meth.
I finally had to get clean off of drugs because you could smell me from a mile away.
But my tonsils had become so inflamed and grown about double in size while I was using that they stayed that size and the tonsil stones remained, just not as bad.
I KNEW that I stunk. I knew it. But everyone said "oh no we don't smell anything!" to spare my feelings, and because they knew it made me so depressed.
I wanted to kill myself because how would you feel to be that pretty girl that nobody expects to be "nasty" yet you ALWAYS STINK LIKE SH*T. Everyone thought I was gross, I lost friends.
3 years later and I have decided not to hide myself away in my parent's basement anymore, I've gotten a job and even though I still got comments like "you need to wash better!" from some random person walking down the hallway across from me, I sucked it up and I did my job around society.
2 weeks ago I finally had enough money saved up for my dream surgery - a tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy to get rid of my problems, and so I can finally be a social butterfly again and maybe have a piece of the happiness I was full of before I became "the stinky girl"...
But it didn't work. I still stink.
WHY?! I have no tonsils. The stitches are finally falling out, but I STILL STINK. WHY?!
