Throat Surgery Scare!

So I had throat surgery today and what it was an almost painless procedure in which they went in my mouth and cut out two peculiar objects from my tonsils which were stuck straight on there. It wasnt anything major whatsoever and I didn't need to be loaded on drugs to fall asleep during it (I was awake the whole time...lucky me!) and they removed what may be tonsil stones. I'll tell you this that they looked kindof like a cluster youd find in your cereal and it was about the size of an M'n'm. Both of them really, so they were tiny. It wasn't cancerous thankfully but I have smoked before in the past and the doc says it could've been the early stages of a tumor, yet at the stage it was in it was completely harmless and just caused some pain and a sore throat. I'm alright now though yet it was quite the scare if I ever get them back I'll be willing to show pictures but they're gross, just saying.
