    Default Just got home from the hospital!

    Woke up this morning with an incredible abdominal pain. No, it wasn't gas.

    7 hours later I am home without my apendix. I'll be laid up for a week, so I'll be chit chatting quite a bit on here. Looking forward to the break! I feel much better though.

    Have a great weekend all!

    Hope you make a speedy recovery.

    Wow - 7 hours in and out! I had my appendix removed almost 20 years ago, and it was a 5 day hospital stay. It's amazing how technology has progressed, although I'm sure alot of that has to do with insurance companies wanting to keep their own costs down.

    Yikes. Wishing you a speedy recovery

    That is pretty fast, being home the same day as surgery. I was in hospital several days after mine were whipped out.
    Cheers
