Well, I was doing well until last Tuesday. I started having pain in the middle of my abdominal area. It came on fairly quickly and did not stop. It settled on the right side and was very persistent. I decided I should have it checked and ended up at the ER. I had my appendix removed on Wednesday. I am sharing because the Dr. I used had said she would be my abdominal surgeon for the rest of my life. She is wonderful and came to the emergency room the first night I was there. She started IV antibiotics right away and after the CT she had me admitted. I am not sure what others doctors tell their patients so I thought this would be good info to share for those who have surgeon here in the US. I came home Thursday this is day three and probably the most painful day. Glad I have pain meds. The worst part of this is even tho I did not eat for a day and a half I gained due to the fluids. I am hoping this goes away really fast. Kind of bummed about it almost 9ibs! 2 to 3 week recovery sucks cause I was just getting back to a normal routine. Thanks for letting me vent here. Needed to share.
