Hi folks.
Some ongoing serious abdomen pain started at the weekend. Getting worse, and intolerable. I have just been taken for observation and much morphine to the surgical triage ward. Fingers crossed it is nothing, but hernia and appendicitis are on the menu. Pain is very bad...
I will post updates when possible. All good wishes much appreciated!

Hi Robin, my word your having a real tough time of it at the moment, and I'm sorry to hear that.
pain is really debilitating and can also be very worrying for you to, I genuinely hope that they. Can successfully control your pain but also they discover the reason and resolve the root cause of that pain.
i have everything crossed for you and warm big hug winging its way right now xxx

Hi all!
I am home again. I have been lucky enough to avoid appendicitis, or a hernia, or any other potential causes of my pain. The doctors suspect I have torn some muscles. Painful, indeed, but I can recover at home, so they released me with instructions to rest, and take painkillers. Which is pretty much my faily routine anyway.
Thanks for all the kind words. It helps to know people out there are sympathetic!
