I don't know but I don't have much experience with tonsil stones. Ents have checked and they never saw any stones. Though one of them said I have very deep tonsil crypts.
I just think if I had stones I would have fairly persistent bad breath. But mine is more like farts of death. Literally, just super foul farts from my mouth. And it happens randomly throughout the day. Just like if you had a gassy fart problem.
I know some will think well at least you don't have bad breath all the time. But honestly with low level bad breath you can function as long as people aren't in your face. But with my fart bombs, it can clear out a room. Even in the outdoors, people have reacted or made comments along the lines of smelling gas or someone pooping.
It's destroyed my social life and stunted my career. I remember one time it happened once when I was talking to my ceo. She just smiled nervously and quickly ended the conversation. I never talked to her again on a one on one basis. I remember having dinner with her when I first started working at the company and my manager told me after the dinner that the ceo really liked me. Three years later, I left and that initial first good impression went nowhere. And it was because I was so self conscious about the fart breath that I just held back. I just hid.
Welcome @yayofbaby, I think you may be right about the tonsil sone causing the bad breath. Here's some information I found on the topic.
"Tonsil stones can cause bad breath though they're usually not painful or harmful. They're also called tonsilliths. You can usually treat tonsil stones at home. But in some cases, you may need surgery to remove the tonsils."

Have you asked the doctor about the possibility of a tonsil stone?
