Having a Lymph Gland removed from my neck, 40mm in front of my earlobe.

Its inflamed and they said it may as well come out, i'll have a 40mm scar and its being done under local anaesthetic, should take 40 mins to complete.

Risks are bleeding, nerve damage and infection but complications are rare.

I dont get tonsilitus a lot, but when i get it, I get it bad, 2 weeks off work last time because just as it cleared on one side, it infected the other. Never had glandular fever though.

I'm not too concerned, they have to read you the risks though. I'm well game for it, a week at home on the PS3
