NFR Talk to me about Appendectomy

[Burt Dagger]

Just got my appendix popped out on Tuesday, now I’m both bored and looking for tips on recovery from the initiated.

My situation wasn’t super dramatic. Went to the ER with persistent stomach pain, and while diagnosed with appendicitis it hadn’t ruptured or gotten otherwise complicated. But they still recommended removal so here I am.

Good time of year for it at least, and I should be in eating shape by Thanksgiving. On that note, let me know your tips and tricks for recovery. And feel free to share your appendix horror stories.

Just listen to your body when it needs rest. It's healing inside and will take a while.

Tie up a few flies while recuperating.

Watch newly released season 3 Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power on Amazon. It will feel like getting an appendectomy all over again.

Check, check, check, and (she would beg to differ) check.

But also two toddlers hell bent on doing a cannonball onto my belly if my guard drops for an instant.

Oh. That changes everything. You need to hang out inside a play pen so you remain safe and the toddlers can’t get to you. Maybe have a rattle toy to use when you need something
