I got gutted with an appendectomy 6 weeks after having a ruptured appendix- doctor said that since I wasn't dead, they'd let my body clean up the mess. I've spent over 2 months hospitalized because of that appendicitis, on and off. I won't take any more from you thread, except to say that I am pleased that medicine has improved enough in the last 44 years that you suffered less!
