I got taken into hospital last night expected appendicitis got put on the drip and everyone is the weirdest sensation ever, doesn't feel right at all
Sounds bad, you having it removed? Drips are no fun either, i had one after i cut my head open and lost a pint of blood x_o
I had my appendix removed when I was 7, the difficult part is getting to the toilet with the drip. I don't remember the drip feeling wierd :S mabe yours wasn't applied correctly.
If you are going for the operation then good luck!
na i just had a liver and kidney infection got tablets for a couple of months, it's when the fluid goes in for the first time you can like feel it running up your vein and when you turn it off aswell.Quote:

I've had loads of them. About 5 blood transfusions and 3 drips I've had in my life time, all when I was 6 and younger :P You big babies :P
So if you're out at the moment does it mean you're fine or are they going to remove it anyway?
Edit: NVM. Must be quite a bad infection :S
My friends mum appendix burst when they were going to austraila (sp), they had to stay in singapore so she could get an op
i am out as in at home now, got 3 months of tablets, no drinking for 4 months :'(
What's Drips? Sorry if it's a dumb question... :[
The things they put in your arm to make sure your getting the correct vitamins and suppliments in yoru daily life. They pump a load of fluids in because you probably cant drink before operations/diagnosisQuote:

probably just water that has been medically cleaned, the pills will do the rest. So what will you do at school for example (or work) when you're thirsty and you can't drink and you don't have your drip?
i can drink normally now as I aint having a operation just gotta have 2 tablets aday with a 500ml bottle of water each for 3 monthsQuote:

Ew, i hate drips. It's horrible when they first put it in and it's freezing up your arm.
Get well soon Dave (: x

"This is the worst part. I hate needles"
REASSURING MUCH. :/
Then she got it in my hand apparently i have bad veins. yay.
My appendix burst in thailand, they completely botched the operation and just injected morphine in to me whenever i moaned... not so good. If your appendix is going to burst, try and be in a country where they speak english!!
Iv never been in hospital so I have never experience drips or blood tests.
But them drips don't look very nice.
