well...i have officially had my first surgery. they took out my appendix friday night, at the UW medical center.
and no, in case you're wondering, they didn't do the laproscopic procedure. i had an "open appendectomy." the surgical chief resident told me it's cheaper, faster, and only minimally more scarring; also that it's what *he* would have, if he needed an appendectomy. so i agreed. just get it done...ya know? i don't wanna die.
there's nothing like having your abdomen sliced open to let you know that you're alive.
and i still don't like narcotics. narcotics + sharon = bad bad bad like puking your guts out, running into walls bad. i'll take plain tylenol, thanx.
so what would you do with 150 oxycodone tablets, if you were me? hehehe.
wanna see my scar? ;-)
