My son is due to have his adenoids out next week. I don't know what to expect. Will he have a lot of pain afterwards? We have an hours drive home, will he need someone next to him in the car? Foods? Sleep?
The admin staff who called to arrange the date said he needs 2 weeks off school to avoid infection. Is this common?
Also what things might cause the operation to not take place? There is 'slapped cheek' going around at the moment and I'm worried about this or anything else stopping it going ahead. We have been on a waiting list for a very long.
