Mine had burst and I didn't even know that was the problem until I finally went to e.r.. As soon as I heard the doctors talking I knew I was going to end up in the operating room. I thought "wow, ok" and then when it came down to the nitty gritty I was in the o.r. counting down from 100 and the next thing I know they're pulling the oxygen mask off and it was done and on my way to my room.I was lethargic from the drugs but I was alright. :-)

It's a proccedure that is not dangerous. The recovery is unpleasant. They have a tube that pulls out the poison through your nose. (has to be, no geting around it) I want you to not fear asking them to clear your tube. (it gets clogged and you often are forced to breath through your mouth) After surgery walk as much as you are allowed. Excercise heals you faster. You can't eat solids till you pass a stool. So don't flush. Let a nurse know. You will have a catheter. When it's removed, don't use a bed pan unless the doctor has written orders. Get up. Move. Walk the halls and all the floors. The more you walk the faster you heal!

considering how common the surgery used to be i would not worry too much about it. this is not the dark ages and they will not be using whiskey and a piece of wood for you to bite on. but you have my best wishes.

Don't worry that modern appendectomy is no longer a death sentence, it's a simple outpatient procedure nowadays...And your in India right? All our best doctors here are Indian so I assume in India there's just that many more of them.
