Wish Me Luck Fellow Blades

[BornOnShorehamStreet]

Update on this difficult time. Yesterday I had the appendix out and although in pain now but it’s the right sort of pain a getting better sort of pain. The Consultant surgeon said it was appendicitis and they had to clear out a lot of goo. When this all started i was told a tumour but thank God it was an appendix. He said the appendix was well swollen pressing against the colon. No follow up appointments needed just got to be careful for a few weeks. He confirmed no nasty stuff.
I would like to thank all of you for your wonderful messages of support. The cloud has finally lifted
Looking forward at last UTB FTP

Good stuff and well done. Enjoy the summer, reflect on your life going forward and enjoy the 2018-2019 Blades promotion season

Great news, that has put a smile on my face pal, and no doubt lifted a great weight from your shoulders.

Best wishes for a speedy recovery.

The thing you need to ask your Consultant is if the rumour they found was benign or malignant? This is a very important question. You absolutely must ask it.

Delighted to learn that originaltrueblade is heading back to real life in one piece. He will now be more interested to find out if the rumour about Wilder going to Sunderland is benign or malignant, just like the rest of us.

Personally I find prayer more effective than crossed fingers.

So I just have done on your behalf.

I had a similar situation 11 years ago on May day bank holiday.

I thought I had pulled a muscle in my stomach but the pain was getting worse as the day wore on so I rang NHS direct who immediately arranged for me to go to a walk in centre and see a GP.

He had a feel, and said "I could just give you some pain killers and send you home, but if I did I wouldn't be doing my job properly"

So he immediately sent me off to Jimmy's for tests and that was that.

They thought I had appendicitis and so they wanted to remove it but when they started the procedure they found so much gunge around it that they actually left the appendix attached and just cleaned out as much of the mess as they could.

The surgeon that did the operation said my insides were such a mess that it looked like a post op situation and that he left my appendix as he couldn't remove it without risking damage to my lower bowel which would give him and me much more of a problem.

He also said that he had found nothing cancerous which came as a bit of a shock to me because it had never crossed my mind that he might find something!

8 days later, after having had a course of intravenous antibiotics to completely clear all the infection they sent me home with my appendix still intact.

Really pleased that all has worked out well for you too.

Bloody magnificent news OTB, delighted for you and yours!

 

[silver blade]

Great stuff fella! Heres to a fast recovery!

I hope the painkillers don't give you constipation like they did me, I sat in my chair watching tv & stuffing my face for a week while I recovered but nothing was coming out the other end, I dare not push too hard & in the end I couldn't stand it any longer, I went back to the hospital a Dr shoved his finger up my arse, well I think it was his finger but I was past caring & said you need an enema, what a relief that was. Have a speedy recovery

 

[diode_blade]

Great news OTB, just take it easy and watch out for Matron kidney punchy you....

 

[Bladebri]

Good luck mate. Seems like you got it early. Don't worry about the Colonoscopy. The worst thing is the stuff they give you to clear out your bowel first!

I had to drink that for the camera up my arse and down my throat, told the guy doing it throat first arse second

 

[Champagneblade]

All the best. What a relief it must be. Good for you.

I’d missed this thread before. Just caught up with it all now - it reads like one of Deadbat’s match reports!

Surgeon - 9/10 MOTM
Appendix - 5/10 hit and miss
