pain levels are good, thanx. tylenol is doing great, and i'm forcing myself to take it easy. (not as easy as glaucon would like, though, i think...he keeps getting mad at me for overdoing the activity, and then he says, "you're definitely not a cry baby." i'm not sure if that last is a good thing or a bad thing... i guess i have a pretty high pain threshold, anyway, for whatever it's worth.)
my nurse practitioner called today and said *she* thinks they did an open "appy" (as you and they called it) because they were worried about it rupturing. she said my white count was pretty high, and had gone up significantly from when they did the labs at her office, to when they did them again at the hospital a few hours later. plus the CT scan looked pretty bad. (i wouldn't know...i kept asking the docs to show it to me, and nobody ever did.) hmm. guess i was pretty sick. it's still very strange and a little worrisome to me that i didn't *feel* sicker. i definitely did thursday night, but i felt better on friday. the NP said i'd have felt a lot sicker soon, and also would have been in excruciating pain, if i hadn't gotten it taken care of quickly.
