Sunday, I felt like I have something stuck on the back of my throat. I kept clearing my throat, eating and drinking things to make the sensation go away. Finally, around 9pm - I used the flashlight to bet a better look. There was a white spot on my left tonsil. I felt fine. No sore throat, no fever. Just felt like there was something stuck back there.
Monday morning, I called our local ENT(ear nose & throat) doctor and got in to see Dr Bryan (she was the doctor that removed Jackie's tonsils). I explained my problem to her and she said she had a pretty good idea what it was without looking. But she looked anyway and told me I have a tonsil stone. I've never heard of that before or known anyone to have one.
