Well, for those wondering where I've been, it went like this.
Feb.24th thursday before midnight - excruciating pain on left side of the stomach
Feb.25th friday 5am - after nearly 6 hours of waiting, I'm admitted into ER of OLR hospital in chicago
doctors can't find out what's wrong, morphine not working, CAT scan not showing a damn thing
Few hours later, receive first Demerol shot for pain, works great, no diagnosis yet
an hour later - surgeon comes in and says that I have an inflamed colon
I get put on antibiotics and taken out of ER into a room
Feb28th monday morning - antibiotics not working, been receiving Demerol 50 (chemical substitute for morphine, very strong pain killer which causes vomoting)
Feb29th tuesday morning - doctor decides to operate not knowing what's wrong with me
after successfull surgery, it's disovered that my apendix was on the left side of my body, a one in a million shot
I got stitches on saturday, and was finally released from the hospital. Recovery is gonna take about a month but at least I'm at home with my family.
Man I've got stories to tell, but I'll leave you guys with a final thought. The pain I felt over the last 11 days I wouldn't wish onto my worst enemy.
Stay healthy guys, and I miss Shane and teknics.
It's good to be back home

My appendix nearly burst before they removed it - probably nothing compared to what you went through though. Hope you get well soon .
I'm surprised noone has made a joke about the surgeons diagnosis of an inflamed colon .

The surgeon didn't know, that's why he cut me in the middle. He then found out.
And thanks Pete

What was the first operation? Or did they get the apendix on that run? I was going to say apedicites from the get go and I ain't a god damn doctor.
******* bullshit, what do you have cheap insurance so you don't get good healthcare, wait no then you would have gotten no pain killers.
Unbelievable. Glad your home and still kicking.
