I'm so unlucky it's even funny!!!


Some of you may remember I recently had a major spinal surgery done:


http://www.jemsite.com/forums/showthread.php?t=44143

6 weeks after, I'm starting to walk a few blocks per day, drive a little and even sit and play some guitar...a very good recovery according to my physician, everything was going great, but...

Last tuesday, a small belly ache starts and quickly gets worse...long story short: I had appendicitis!!!! so wednesday night I went under the knife AGAIN, this time after a quick visit to the ER!

What's the odds of that? 2 surgeries in 6 weeks? damn!!!! At least, both procedures had no complications and I have a good health insurance plan, so the medical bills won't be as huge as one could expect!

It hurts to be on the wrong end of the pain stick -speaking from experience- Sounds like you got good treatment and care, that goes a long way. Chin up and move onward, stay dedicated to rehab it really works.

Imagine how boring rehab would be if you didn't play guitar.
