Early am ER
by: SS on Wed, Oct 31 2007

I was ready for bed and had slight pain in the middle upper part of my stomach. I started vomiting at 11 pm and it was so bad that dry heaves incurred. 3 am EMT was called because the pain was so extreme. Never pain on right side only vomiting. By 6 am I was in the operating room. Mine appendix never ruptured and I was grateful my spouse called 911.
