The miracles of modern medicine
 

I woke up Friday morning with a sharp pain in my side. It got worse on Saturday. My ex drove me to emergency Saturday night. Sunday morning they took out my appendix and I was discharged Sunday night.
No scars or stiches. Just some super glue and tape and even the soreness is almost gone.
When I was a kid if you had an appendectomy, you were lucky if you were out of the hospital in a week.
I'm even going back to work tomorrow. Don't even need to take the Oxycodone they prescribed. Yay for modern times. :-)

Two kids I knw (okay, one only vaguely) died of peritonitis in my childhood.
So glad you were diagnosed and operated on in time.

Yay for modern medicine.
Very happy it saved you.

Wow! Modern times indeed! That's awesome Shel.

Aren't they taking those things out thru the butthole or vagina yet? I thought I heard that somewhere...

Glad to hear you're ok!

:-)

It's all done through 3 holes now. One for the camera, one for the snipper clamp and one to move the other organs out of the way.

So, you were back on your knees in no time? :p

For some of the doctors and male nurses I saw there, I would have been on my knees during the surgery. ;-)

Like the Nathan Hale of appendicitis:
I regret that I have but one appendix for this doctor to remove...

Glad you're better, Shel. Glad it was an easy-go.

my first reaction, however, was to wonder if you wanted to off those oxycodones...selfish addict.

Maybe it's a sign of the times but that's the 1st thing everyone asks about. What meds did I get. lol!!

Glad to hear you are well! but why did you get the hole sealed up; you could have had more fun with it!

A myopic and horny Parisian
Once screwed and appendix incision
The girl of his choice
Could hardly rejoice
At this terrible lack of precision.

:bandaid: Shel! I'm glad you're OK. :)

Because it's not really sex unless it's in the ass. ;)

So, then I'm still a virgin?

Glad you're okay, Shelly. Laproscopic surgery is definitely the way to go! :thumb:
