when you wake up you should ask how the appendectomy went...

Congrats, very excited for you! I wish your pain to resolve quickly! ๐Ÿ’œ

I get to be in about 8 months :3

[-] neonfoxx79 1 points 1 year ago

surprisingly not that painful, home now. mostly just uncomfortable. only on paracetamol and that's fine

[-] Sierra_Is_Bee@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

That's awesome! Congrats on getting home and getting on the mend.

I'm a baby when it comes to pain haha ๐Ÿซฃ But I actually have a surgery date so I better figure that out.
