Sounds like: It is associated with pms. This is controlled by a 28 day rhythm in the brain. This rhythm is very easily disturbed by poor diet and although it sound very odd, the truth is that your tonsils may be getting a message from the computer, particularly if you are emotionally labile, have period cramps and ? Have a craving for chocolate, sugar or salt. Try getting rid of all forms of sugar and salt.
