Did you have more than one set of tonsiles removed? There are three sets:

1.Palatine tonsils-located on each side of throat

2.Pharyngeal tonsils-located near posterior opening of nasal cavity

3.Lingual tonsils-located near base of the tongue

There are other lymph organs that will take over the job: thymus and various lymph nodes.
