    Burst appendix.

    At least it only happens once.

    I almost died last Thursday.

    Today bloated and willing to do anything to fart.

    Has anyone here had the pleasure of spasmodic full abdominal distention with pain carrying you to delirium?

      Oddly enough we were just discussing possible appendicitis in a good friend’s young boy. He’s in the hospital now. Not sure on his situation yet. Glad to hear you’re relatively OK. Get well soon.

        I Pity anyone thus afflicted but for a child to go though it defies description.

                  Blew mine out in'13. Man was I a mess for a couple of months. Something was bothering me for a couple of weeks and then I did a flush. Not good with an apendix heading south. Was in the hospital on a Sunday and then emergency surgery Monday morning. Spent a full week in the hospital and then 2 weeks at home. September of '18 hit. Acute Bacterial Tonsilitis about killed me. Then 2 knee surgeries in '19. Cancer and pnuemonia misdiagnosis in '21, which turned into Lupus. Full blown - I have bad cooties

                    had viral pneumonia which almost got me. triage nurse put me in the same exam room. weird thoughts of soul eating rooms jump around in your brain.
                    had lots of male nurses nice guys who i felt no shame in front. one gal was a beauty 25 YR old. i was profoundly embarrassed.

                      Glad they got your innards cleaned up in time Cipher.... Happened to a friend of mine 30 or so years ago. I remember visiting him in the hospital and it was touch and go there for a while ........

                        Cipher I've come to the conclusion that the medical "support" staff in most hospitals are wonderful people. Dr's mostly suck. Either way - they have no souls at all.

                        I have a dermatologist that is very attractive and then let's talk about my physical therapy ladies... yummy

                        However, I have no shame what-so-ever - LOL

                          Last December I almost died of full blown C.Diff. I looked like a pregnant man. The pressure was so bad, my spine gave out and I could not walk. I have had C.Diff 4 times. It's horrible, I also developed Sepsis. I hope you recover fully and very fast.

                            Two years ago my eight-year old son had these concerns when got up in the morning and they continued through the afternoon.
                            I took him to hospital and after an all night wait he got his first ride in an ambulance as.they transferred him to Sick Kids.
                            We came home three days later. ...after his appendix was removed.

                              It's horrible when you child suffers. You feel so helpless. My am going through a same similar because my son was poisoned by a medicine, and his immune system is a mess. I can't post too much here on that, but I'd rather take the illness than have my son take it.
