Anonymous·This FML is from back in 2013 but it's good stuff·Santa Barbara, United States
Man up
Today, I woke up with horrible pain in my gut. It got worse and worse, and I started vomiting from the pain. My mom said it was the flu and that I needed to "man up." It turned out to be appendicitis, and I'm now typing this from my hospital bed. FML
So sorry for you, OP. I had the same thing happen to me a while back. I ended up calling an ambulance because my mom said I was overreacting and it was "just PMS". Needless to say, she felt awful when I was rushed to the hospital for emergency surgery. Anyways, I hope you recover quickly :)
The only purpose of the appendix is to keep surgeons busy at 2 AM. Like I don't have 17,632 other things I'd rather be doing in the middle of the night.
**** you, appendix. **** you.
OP clearly stated that they were diagnosed with appendicitis. Since they specifically said that they were submitting this FML from their hospital bed, I presume that OP already had their surgery. Therefore, it is not gallbladder complications.
i just ******* hate it when ppl sit and diagnose cases just bc they think they know shit... ur mom should be slapped and told to shut the **** up unless she is a ******* medical doctor. had she given u any medication or god knows what, u might not be alive to even post this! u r in pain u call medical help not ur mom or dad or neighbor.

Be lucky you're not telling us this beyond the grave with and epitaph reading: "I told you it wasn't the flu!" on your tombstone.

I've had appendicitis, and I can say that it's impossible to "man up" unless you are Chuck Norris. Then again, he wouldn't get appendicitis.
