Re: VPI post adenoidectomy

Hi Jenqa,

I'm not sure about the clarinet playing side of things but we do have family experience of adenoidectomy to pass on in case it helps.

One of my family members had great difficulty with adenoids, and had to have them out twice in two years. However, he subsequently gave up eating wheat and the problem went away, only returning if wheat was reintroduced to his diet.

I had always had tonsil trouble, which also went away when I gave up wheat.

The flip side of excluding wheat is that a new iron/vitamin source needs to be found, as all wheat flour is legally required to be fortified with vitamins and iron (in the UK at least).

I just wondered if I could mention in case it helps you to avoif further trouble? We had a really long and difficult time figuring it out the hard way and I'd be glad to help someone else avoid that.

Jen
