A member asked:

I get strep throat every one too two months. so have to constantly go to the doctor and get antibiotics. any reason i keel getting it?

Correct diagnosis??: How is this being diagnosed? Your tonsils/adenoids are gone what are symptoms have sinuses been checked? Lymph nodes? Immune response? If primary care can't diagnose might need to be seen by ENT or infectios disease specialist.
