Default Re: Emergency appendectomy = not fun

I had the same thing happen to me about 2 years ago. Rushed to the emergency room, barely got there in time. Luckily, they were able to do me lapriscopically (sp?) so my scars are almost invisible.

This also reminds me of a funny story. As I was lying in the emergency room, the anesthesiologist (sp?) was about to hook me up with the drugs to make me go to sleep before the surgery. In to the room walks one of the most beautiful women I have ever seen. Apparently she is a nursing student, and is working as an intern with the doctor. After the injection, as I am starting to fade away into Happy Land, the doctor turns to the really hot chick, and says "Don't worry if he gets an erection, it is very normal with the drugs". I, in my half-baked state, say "It is very normal without the drugs too". Worst part is that my parents were standing about 5 feet away from me. My dad still busts my balls all the time for that one.
