Does anyone have any experience with the removal of these?  The more I research the more I see Adnoids and Tonsils removed at the same time.  Is there any reason to do them both at the same time if the tonsils are not causing any problems?

Not from my experience,,, A long time ago (it seems like it now anyways) when I worked in pediatrics we had a lot of kids who just had their tonsils taken out but not the adenoids... course we are talking about 15 years ago,, I will look for more information when I return to work on Monday on the website we have for patient information handouts and see what I can find. I think a lot of the more prominet research is that if one is causing problems they remove both while they are in doing the procedure,, but like I said I can research it better when I can access it from work... will let you know.
