I'm hoping the same thing is happening to me, as I never had tonsillitis up to the age of 18.
I wouldn't get them removed unless it's very severe with each case.
Have you tried taking co-codamol to ease the pain? That works wonders for me (although it has made me feel high sometimes).

Thanks both of you for your help I'll keep considering it in the mean time I'll do what you said I've got a bag stuffed full of covonia, strepsils and paracetamol I'll take some cocodamol later before I eat my tea which is a bowl of soup (the only thing I can just about swallow)

I'll make warm drinks as well
