Sorry for a lack of posting but I spent some time in the hospital because of a sneeze!
Tuesday, about 4:15 p.m. I sneezed, not even a hard sneeze, at work and felt like someone stabbed me in the kidney. It wasn't a pulled muscle, it wasn't anything like what I've experienced before....expect PAIN. Thought it might be kidney stones.
My wife and I carpool to work, she works only a couple of miles from me so it saves us gas. By the time she arrived at 5:00 I was a hurting puppy.
So, when she suggested a visit to the ER, I agreed. (Ok, after trying not to the first time).After a relative fast trip through the ER, it turns out that I had an inflamed appendix.
Turns out if you are hungry waiting for the test results, it isn't a good idea to get a snack ot tide you over. It pushed back the appendictomy until 1:00 a.m.
12 hours after the surgery and I was ready to go home. Just made it back from the hospital.
More later folks
So, how many women lost babies

Yikes! Welcome back, glad to see you're better now. ;-)
Damn they really got that surgery down to a science.
Glad you're all fixed up. If the appendix ruptures you're in for a WORLD of hurt.
Rest up, dude, we'll be here when you're on the mend!
Glad you decided to hit the ER instead of "manning" it out. Even happier that all is well.
Gesundheit!
Good move on choosing the ER.
Wishing you a fast a full recovery,
Zack
Good luck with the recovery, Bob. I'm going in for a little thing myself next week, unlike your emergency visit, mine is planned. I'm having a metal pin removed from my forearm near the elbow. Also they're gonna remove some calcification while they're in there. Good thing I'm not a shooter, huh. Just thinking about the recoil of, say, a .45, makes my elbow hurt.
Get well soon, Bob.
Hey Bob keep this story handy. I just heard on the news Obama wants to roll forward with a Universal Healthcare system.
You'd also might want to google-fu up Death rates from apendicitis in places like the UK and Canada.
Another failed plan that others belive will work "just because"
