Having an operation...

[Sillymonkey]

I'm having an operation next Wednesday.

A few days after that, I will be having a second operation.

I have been in and out of hospital since August, but each time I go I make sure to bring my laptop and prepaid internet.

Have you had serious medical issues before? Sucks hard

Luckily I have not had to experience anything like that. Why are you there?

what do you mean by medical issues?
ive torn my acl and mcl.
never had one that i got naturally(other than asthma/bronchitis)

 

Damn, I might get one. I'm also scared out of my mind. Don't worry man, just think of when you'll be done with the operation and you can resume your daily life. If you ever need someone to talk with, hit me up with a PM!

 

Best of luck man.

I've never had any operations.

I had my appendix removed in August of last year (Acute Appendicitis), and since then everytime I stop taking antibiotics I keep developing abscesses in my pelvic area.

After ages I was able to find a surgeon that has dealt with my particular type of case before (the pelvic collections thing is apparently not uncommon after getting appendix out, but the reason I am getting it is more complicated).

I'm just happy to get it over with I guess, but the 2 operations do make me a bit nervous.

I guess I'm the only one that has had a messed up medical history LOL, I've had brain surgery like 4 times (once they made me stay awake during the surgery, weirdest thing I ever experienced) and now this abscess nonsense has brought me up to a total of 6 surgeries in my short life (it will be 8 after this hospital trip...) and I am only almost 22.

Oh well lol, thanks for the support guys.

About a year and a half ago, I was going to get my spline taken out, but that didn't happen.
I was scared at first, but you realise its not bad. Although i've never had an operation.

I've been blessed with a limber body and good health. Never broken a bone or had any major operations.

The most I've had is stitching without anaesthetic...

I had MRSA and stayed there a couple days. Other than that, not really .. I don't think.

damn man, you have been dealt a tough hand in life. look at the positive aspect of this situation though: This operation is for your own good. if it wasnt, the team of medical professionals responsible for your wellbeing wouldnt be working on you.
Ive had nose surgery for a deviated septum (broken nose bone). I was unconscious for 6 hours during which i was intubated (sucks ass). During recovery i didnt eat for a week because i was so nauseas and i lost 15 lbs. but now i can breath out my nose! hooray!

If your need somebody to talk to, just hit me up on MSN: [email protected]

Best of luck!

Sorry you have to have all that surgery

Only "operation" I've had is getting my wisdom teeth pulled out.
