So everything was going fine when all of a sudden bam! horrendous pain. I tried to ignore it for about hour but it was so bad I had to go to the ER and now I’ve been told I’m being prepped for emergency surgery! Honestly I’m scared, nervous and in pain. I don’t have many friends to reach out to and was hoping people could send something funny or recommend some fun things to watch while I recover?
Sorry for the selfie and stay safe out there people!

Hey! Maybe appendicitis? When you’re awake and high on opiates, update us to let us know you’re fine.

I like Monty Python Search for the Holy Grail. Once in the hospital the volume was out, but I watched & laughed because I knew the lines.

Kidney stone? Appendix?

I had the kidney stones. I wished for death.

So did my coworker. He said he'd rather have covid

Same as long as I’m guaranteed not to die, covid all the way.

I'm trying to pass a kidney stone as we speak. I'm on Percocet all weekend and having surgery Monday if it doesn't pass by then.

Beer, lots of it. For real, non-alcohol if needed.

Iv had kidney stones twice. The pain is so bad that I've been told it's worse then child birth and I believe it. I'll find out at some point
misslazrathe
I had a kidney stone the other day, I would rather have another baby, at least then I got an epidural lol. (Baby is 5 months old)

I mean, it's not the most unlikely scenario.

My vote is appendix.

@op Confirmed appendix in a different comment; thought I'd put the mystery to bed!
CptJohnYossarian
Timing seems pretty quick for appendix. Maybe cyst accident? Well find out after the op I guess
Quizz25S
Appendixes can rupture with little or no warning. Mine did.
CptJohnYossarian
I know. But it's very rare for appendix to go from asymptomatic to exquisite pain all of a sudden. Normal appendixes don't just burst. - doc
Quizz25S
Haha, sorry for trying to correct you then Doc! /Salute
Neboskrebnut
mine was on captured condom with coke in it

Maybe gallbladder?

It was confirmed appendix in a different comment thread.

My gal bladder was taken out recently due to imminent rupture.

I'm assuming appendix is the medical term for gender reassignment.

Of course. Because "Append" means "to add" and dix....well, you know....

My appendix is the reason I have my username, very long story, but getting it out was an absolute breeze
KarmannGeezer
They can turn an appendix into a penis now.

malaph
I went through that too.. Youll be ok and life will be back to normal soon! Exciting story to share too
ForgeoftheWordsmith
I had mine out at 6, then broke all three bones in my left arm three weeks later, so I feel ya! Get better!
HagglePuff
I'm no doctor, but i don't think you need your appendix touched during a gendr reassignment surgery.
minqapoc
See you, Space Cowboy.
oneeyedgod
Stupid traitor organ! Mine did it to me last year! Good luck!
Cilvaa
Ugh, had mine out in 2009. Pain hit me out of nowhere. Was told I probably had the infection for days before the pain hit.
triestino21
Yep, happened to me several years ago. Went in for lapr....hell. told me small scar to see, woke with cut belly button down ?
65wattsy
I had an appendicitis years ago. Spent like 18 hours in pain and way too much walking before going to the ER.
tg2222222
Unusual for it to come on so suddenly like that. At least it's easily treated.
DreadPierateRoberts
Status check....
BishlamekGurpgork
I had neck surgery a while back. My spine took a hit, cord was swelling in the spine, pressing against it, could have stopped my breathing
BishlamekGurpgork
At any time. So they carved a pie wedge out of three vertebrae to let it breathe, and screwed them together because they didn't stack right
BishlamekGurpgork
anymore. I couldn't walk right, had numb hands and feet. Slowly my coordination and sensation came back, and life went on. My point is
BishlamekGurpgork
That, as scary and disruptive and stressful as this seems right now, you'll cross it and reach the other side.
HemlockMoonwolf
I know the feeling! This happened to me back in December. Fucking blows
prolurker2077
Mine ruptured when I was 10 and almost killed me. Hang in there!
rowdypup
@op welcome to the club! Mine tried to kill me when I was 7. Little bastard.
Ryebread91
I went in for suspected appendicitis. Was actually scar tissue wrapped around my intestines. I was nervous too. You'll be ok.
ScorneontheCob
I knew a guy who ignored an intense pain for days, passed out, woke up being told his appendix burst & went gangrenous.
lilgypsy
When I got mine taken out I was sore for a few days but it hurt for weeks after everytime I would laughed.
Amberfish
I had my gallbladder out two months ago; recovery is not gonna be great but it WILL get better! Be gentle with yourself.
MaxWar
*Hugs his appendix and hides in a corner*
prinskippleskipper63
The worst part is literally the drive home, speed bumps will make you a bit sore. Then it's all smooth slightly uncomfortable sailing.
BenSnow97
so, it's been a few hours, have they attached said "appendix" yet?

Mine was taken when I was 11, so I hope you have an awesome recovery!!

i'm glad you've decided to donate your organs, seems a bit odd while you're still using them, but i'm not gonna argue.
MiniMegaOfParagonCity
I've been there, most pain I've ever been in. I was in grade six.
MrNickAlphabet
Space cadet time is best time. Ugh i remember my appendix removal. So good not to feel that pain anymore!
Corsair212
Yeah, appendicitis sucks. Hopefully you were fast enough and have a quick recovery! Morphine is a hell of a drug lol!
drbloodbathmc
If my friend didn’t get hers out a few days ago I’d assume you were her.
erbiumyttriumytterbium
Yeah, appendix is a bastard. Hardly ever planned. They ripped mine out a week before I entered college!
FeChefImgur
If you happen to be doing a stint in Antartica they take it out prior to ensure if doesn't need doing while you're there.
7CentsVern
NotACyberman
Piece of cake, the worst part is the soreness in the tiny openings and a little muscle soreness.
kjb72
You'll be ok! I had mine out when I was 9. Speedy recovery! The ice cream was the best part.
IwillrateyourDeckBobandVagenePics
From what I heard, appendicitis hits with extreme pain and you pretty much have to go to surgery asap.
IwillrateyourDeckBobandVagenePics
Sucks but get well soon
pizzaparty
The pain from mine came and went for days. Thought it was just gas. Finally hurt so bad I couldnt take it. Rolled up to the ER just in time.
JonnyTightlips
Depends. Sometimes slower onset and milder cases can sometimes be treated with antibiotics.
IwillrateyourDeckBobandVagenePics
That is good to hear. Everytime I feel sudden pain in the area around my appendix, I fear the worst. But then the pain subsides in minutes
Smtrubie
Don’t run a marathon after. In and out. Had mine out 23 years ago and was in ICU for a week and half after. My how the times have changed.
geoffdunlop
Good luck! Lost mine when I was 16. Had an old school doctor that cut me open wide. You'll do much better in today's medical care!
stimpsonjcatt
You had your surgery at school? Rough
xFryla
What the fuck? I am so glad school doctors aren't a thing here.
Bowieponie
Lol at the other comments, old school is a perfectly acceptable term right
TripUpStairs
I went into the ER and walked out the door within 12 hours. Laproscopic appendectomy. Just a little sore for a few weeks. You got this!
FrijolesTheGreat
Same, my appendix had it’s fun while driving home on the fwy. Went to closest McDonalds and called 911. That was fun.
Bowieponie
Probs depends if it was scheduled or it burst first. My brothers burst, and he was a few days in hospital. But that was like, 20 yrs ago
uptaco
Same, but I developed an ileus due to the anesthetics. Right back to the hospital and was on IV nutrition for 2 weeks.
TripUpStairs
Oh no! So painful. How tired were you of nurses asking if you passed gas? Hope you're all good now.
uptaco
Oh yeah, this was 9 years ago. And my aunt was a nurse at the hospital, so I was asked extra often. Lol.
Prinzka
I was in the hospital for 2 weeks after my appendectomy.
JustAGuyWithEpilepsy
Maybe not the time
stinkingyeti
I had pain in that area, turns out it was an omentum infarction, left hospital the day after surgery, walked out. Laproscopy is the balls!
Conboss
Brother had this at 16. I came back from swim lessons and he was on his way to ER. Didn’t see my parents that night, bro was a-ok tho!
dragontail420
Same! You'll do just fine

A couple years ago on Christmas something wasn't feeling right, I suspected appendicitis. Drove myself to the ER and they confirmed. 1/
Wubalubadubdub7
I would also like to know how u knew it wasn't right. Just in case it happens to me in the future @__@

Hey! Wanted to let you know I just answered this on the other user's post so you don't miss out
Wubalubadubdub7
Thank a bunch!!

Had the surgery and was back at my parents house that same night. Next day drove up to the mountains because we had a cabin booked. 2/
xSharpNTearx
Had to take it a little easy but was still able to go on walks and light hikes. Recovery isn't too bad, you've got this!! :)
HogwartsAlumnus
Didn’t feel right how?

On Christmas Eve I was having sharp pain lower right abdomen, I was really hoping it was just from bad food from the party earlier. 1/

It was still there and still same quality in the morning. Then I checked McBurney's point (Google) and it was definitely positive so 2/
