appendicitis at my age?

[stringbreaker]

Monday brought a new milestone in my life. Appendicitis at age 72, kind of unusual but not unheard of. I think it may have been the most painful experience of my life even more than my knee surgeries. Came on like a pulled muscle in my side and got increasingly worse till Monday evening we went to the urgent care. got the news it had to come out. All went according to Hoyle and I'm on the mend today was the best day so far. I think I'm over the hump so to speak.

Hoping for a quick recovery for you.
Pace yourself!

Glad you're on the mend and on the road to recovery. I really never gave it much thought on getting appendicitis as you got older because all the cases I've heard of were from younger people. Those I knew that had it said it was very painful and nothing to mess with, Annies brother died from it back in '65. Now that's something else I've got to (possibly) look forward to as I age.
