Re: Emergency appendectomy = not fun

I, in my half-baked state, say "It is very normal without the drugs too". [/ QUOTE ] Surgery is weird man. My first time, the doctor told me that they were going to "give me some oxygen" so I could breathe better, and then like 10 seconds into I realized he lied and I was being gassed, and then the next thing I know I wake up and ask a nurse when we are going to have the surgery, totally not realizing we just had it.

[/ QUOTE ] I agree, that part was strange. I was very conscious about being put under, and thought that I would be able to notice when it was happening. Nope. Woke up in the recovery room without even realizing that anything had happened. Apparently I was alert enough to work into conversation that I had won a poker tournament on Saturday. My wife thought it was quite funny that I managed to find a way to bring that up, post-surgery, although I can't remember how I got to talking about it.

Re: Emergency appendectomy = not fun
I almost had the operation done. I woke up at 5 am one morning with a really intense pain above my groin. I went to the doc and he said I had a very high white blood cell count, but not enough were the appendix usually burst. I had the option to go ahead and take it out or wait to see if it ever comes back. After two days it didnt hurt anymore.. and this was about 4 months ago.

I knew what the mask was for, but when they put it on, I thought the gas smelled awful. So I pulled it away, and the gas was coming out into the room. They forced it back on my face and held it there till I was out.

...one of the most beautiful women I have ever seen. Apparently she is a nursing student..."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. [/ QUOTE ] Funniest post I've read in a long time. I laughed so hard, my side hurt. Side hurt! Get it??? (Seriously, funny post RD. Get well soon NF.)
