I had to have my appendix taken out, but, I am here because I want to ask, have any of you been in hospital, and what for?

EDIT: I know its not game related, but it is something I would like to ask people.

No story, i was walking to an Accounting school Saturday at 8 AM and someone came from behind and stabbed me for no reason(they didnt want to rob me or anything), i didnt have enough time to do anything more than crawl , get on my back and when i had the chance start running towards a Mall, i stayed there for like 5 minutes and later went to a subway station to get some help D:. After that i went to the hospital where my mom works and got patched up there :3

I'm glad that it didn;t hit my spinal column or else i would be in a wheelchair.

I spent three months in the hospital after a car accident. I've got enough metal in me now that I set off metal detectors at airports.

I had my appendix removed too a long time ago. That's the only time I've been there as a patient.

The longest I've ever been in hospital was for a few hours while they gave me a glucose-saline I.V. to treat me for dehydration. I had a severe case of the flu or dysentery or something. Thank god that I've never had anything worse than mononucleosis.

I went there a few times in my life, from early childhood (2 or 3 years) to a few years ago: inguinal hernia, broken femur, cyst removal, etc... Not really bad things, only a bad time to go through. Everything went always fine, but the most enjoyable thing is still when you go out :)

Nope. Just visiting.

I know it sounds weird but I wish I had broken a bone or something. I would like to see what kind of pain is that and I wish I had gone to hospital for a few days for that.

In a hospital or specifically for surgery? I've had my appendix removed as well, it got swollen, couldn't keep any food down and to make it worse, for the operation I wasn't even allowed a sip of water for a day. Cherry on the cake was that it was two days before the big gaming expo here. Needless to say, I couldn't make it

Well, I think they said my appendix burst. I also had an abscess on/in (can't remember which, probably the first) my pelvis.

Three times; well, three specific reasons. One had me in and out for weeks, but I've never had to stay overnight or anything.

When I was 7, I was paralyzed from the waist down for 2 months. I was so sick I couldn't hold down any food or water. Had to go in three times a week for an IV. They also threw me in for a CT scan.
And the funniest thing - they accused my parents of 'withholding food'. Of course, that explains why my self-employed parents essentially shut down their business for those 2 months to take care of me. Good call.

Went back at 12 for a far less eventful trip. I broke my left collarbone. The staff had improved by then, but they were still more focused on getting an x-ray of my elbow than my shoulder. Let's tend to the area that isn't purple and swollen.

And lastly, when I was 16 I had to have a blood test to check my liver. I was on an anti-fungal and it had a nasty side effect of liver failure. My primary just wanted to make sure I'd be fine, but I was out of state when it was "supposed" to be done.. so I just went to a hospital. They never actually gave me my results, but my skin hasn't turned yellow yet so I think I'm okay.

Had a pulmonary embolism 2 years ago which also in turn triggered diabetes in me (stress to the body I guess). I had blood clots in my lungs and could barely breathe when talking, and my blood sugars were like over 400 (normally should be like 70-130). Should have died right there and then. I have to be on blood thinners AND insulin probably the rest of my life now. Blood clots are nothing to mess with. The gamer life is a dangerous one. Don't think it can't happen to you. As a gamer and someone with a sit-down office job, it was only a matter of time. In general, a gamer's sedentary lifestyle can greatly increase chance for deep vein thrombosis (clots in legs) and pulmonary embolism. Take a minute when gaming to stretch and move around! Every hour or so is ideal.

Eh, it happens. At first I thought it was the end of the world. Scary stuff. But I've since adjusted to things, and I still have a long road ahead as I need to get in shape and take care of myself better, but it could always be worse. I could not exist right now. I certainly enjoy every day given to me, that's for sure. You just roll with the punches and do the best you can. Also glad to hear you whooped cancer's a##. It took my mom 4 years ago...I hope a cure is found, if the medical community could realize for a moment that people's lives are worth more than any profits from cancer treatment.

I Had Rheumatic Fever When I Was 15 Years Old. Had A Rash All Over My Body, A Serious Fever And My Left Knee Swelled Up With Pus Till It Was As Big As A Small Basketball. The Doctors Had To Monitor My Brain And Heart To Make Certain That There Would Be No Damage As I Was Hospitalized For A Week And A Half Being Treated With Antibiotics. And Then There Was The NEEDLE... Oh, The Needle With The Hole That I Could See At Its Point- THAT'S How Big It Was... The Doctor Had To Jab It InTo My Knee, Under The KneeCap To Drain Out All That Greenish-Yellow Pus. He Couldn't Freeze The Area, So It Was Really Fucking Painfull.

And THAT Was My Stay In A Hospital.

I've been 5 times in for surgeries. First time was for my appendix, the next 4 were for my legs (something wrong with my Achilles Tendon).

Two times at least. One as a kid, had some problem in my right knee and needed surgery. The second time was more recent, around Jan and had the same surgery as you, spent about 1 week in the hospital, I was bored to death.

I spent about two weeks in hospital, and another two months in outpatient care, after suffering a serious concussion in a hockey game in high school. It was particularly awkward because I played goalie, play was stopped, and one of my teammates partially caused it by accidentally knocking me over, and I partially caused it by zoning out...a goalie not paying attention. Fuuuuuuuuuuuu.

I was once there to cut one of my nail from one of my foot, because it was getting in the flesh, causing much pain and blood lost.

Not the best story to share with my grandchildren.

Both my big toes have those kind of nails...didn't think about operating them so far though....i'm having lots of fun cutting all the skin and flesh while cutting my toenails even though other people might find it disgusting :)

I had the same thing for both of my toes as well. But one day I just had enough of accidentally kicked something and end up bloody, I picked up an eyelash scissor and operate the nails meself.
Damn, it is such a nasty business, but both my toes are all good now. Eventhough it's ugly.

Two months when i was 8, for Tuberculosis. They used to wake me up at 1-2 AM and get me into a room, then insert a plastic tube for maybe 20 centimeters into my nose, then pump some liquid....i had nightmares for a lot longer after that xD
