bye bye appendix
Well... I am now one appendix lighter. No lifting for a month n a half... kinda pisses me off.
I ended up in the hospital with acute appendicitis. As soon as I got there, they pumped me full of antibiotics and shipped me off to the operating room. They said that the timing couldn't have been any better. I guess my appendix perforated just as they pulled it out. If we had waited any longer it would have been major infection time.
Just thought I'd let you guys know I won't be around much.
I hurt... alot. I would go throw up now, but I can't flex my abs... and the garbage can is all the way across the room. It would take me a good 2 minutes or more before I could hobble that far."We cannot but pity the boy who has never fired a gun; he is no more humane, while his education has been sadly neglected."

United Nations.... sure, we'll let the weapons inspectors in.... no terms or conditions.' The United Nations.... being the left-wing, pansy-ass, limp-wristed, liberal bastards they are, turn around and believe him."

Not to be a smart ass or anything; do you think your condition has anything to do with your choice of "supplements"?

Good luck with your recovery, dude.
Don't think it as missing your workouts, think of it as an extended rest and recuperation phase in your training.
Plus just imagine all the TV you can watch while you're laid up! I betcha you could watch Seinfeld like 12 times a day if you have satellite or digital TV.

damn that sucks.

it's higly doubtful appendicitis has anythign to do with anything aside from the appendix.
now that that's cleared up....i hope you feel better bro, and i'm glad you caught in time. I'm guessing bedrest for 3 days, and you'll be up and around after that. careful with that vicadin.

Hey all... just checkin in before I head to bed again. I think you for your well wishes.
Anyway... no you can't get appendicitis from the gear. It's due to a blockage of some sort that traps bacteria inside the appendix. The bacteria multiplies and the appendix becomes inflamed, and if left for too long it will perforate, letting the bacteria out and causing a massive, potentially life threatening infection.
I'm doing surprisingly well now... up n walkin again. They gave me hydrocodone though... no vicodin. Hydrocodone makes me dizzy, nauseous, sleepy and just totally out of it. I only took one tab this morning when I wanted to die, and again after a rough car ride. Unless the pain is real bad again tomorrow morning, I think I'm done with the stuff.
When I got my wisdom teeth pulled I had no pain meds, and when my femur was busted I think I put down maybe 3 tabs of hydrocodone total. Two of them they made me take. Guess my pain tolerance is kinda high."We cannot but pity the boy who has never fired a gun; he is no more humane, while his education has been sadly neglected."

Yo, Tadge. I can totally feel for you, bro. The good thing is, in a couple of months, you'll be feelin' fine. In about six (don't push it!!!!) you can get back hardcore. Good luck with the recovery, DO NOT get hooked on the narcs, and enjoy downtime. Watch movies. Get with a girl (no sex until you can walk at least a mile, remember that rule... violating it WILL cause you trouble.. heheh).

Oh wow. I hear ya tryska... I lay there floundering around trying to get up without using my abs. It probably looks hilarious... but if anyone laughed I'd punch em.
Surprisingly I'm doin pretty well right now. I can laugh again today... and cough weakly too. I only took two tylenol today... but I could have lived without even that. Hopefully the rest of my recovery goes similarly. I usually heal pretty quick, but I don't want to get overconfidant and end up hurting myself."We cannot but pity the boy who has never fired a gun; he is no more humane, while his education has been sadly neglected."

It helps to roll over onto your belly while tucking your knees under you and get up on all fours, instead of sitting up from a supine position.

Or roll on your side and do the half elbow push up. Like a big old log.

Hope you recover fast. I'm sure you will.
"In the grand scheme of things, both things are quite superficial(obsessed with being muscular&ripped and incredibly strong). And yet lifting can teach you so much. My time at the gym--at least when I'm lifting--is invariably the high-point of my day. There aren't any questions; I almost don't even think. I go into an almost meditative trance-like state. Day-to-day worries become insignificant. I'm focused solely on the weight, and my reason for existence is clear. To move the bar and to improve on what I accomplished last time. Seldom are things so simple." - Blood&Iron
"Most people cannot understand what burns in our blood, the gym is our addiction and iron is our drug. People don't understand why we commit hours a day to a goal where progress is so small it seems immeasurable, why we do cardio instead of watch TV, why eat 6 meals a day, why we insist on ordering diet soda or how we can drink skim milk. Most people will simply never grasp why we refuse to settle for a mediocre body." - Severed Ties
