Well we figured out that uhh...my right kidney is malformed..pretty damn tiny. So they're taking it out on June 10th. Thats right, me left kidney's goin solo. so yea, wish me luck because i'm scared as hell...or will be, right now its no biggy but i know i'll wet my bed the days before ;)  

Just an update i guess

Kinda ironic that you said you'd wet the bed...  LOL

Oh, sorry... yeah you'll be fine.  One kidney will serve you adequitely for the rest of your life, and since  kidneys are in the lower part of your abdomen, the risks involved in surgery are very small (unless you have a surgeon who can't tell the difference between a kidney and lung)!  Nothing to get worried about.  ;)

BTW- just a question- why are you having the kidney removed instead of just leaving it?  :miffed:  

Just in case...If it gets infected or something later i'll be some old guy with less of a recovery rate ;)  this way i'm expected to bounce back quickly. Should be a 2-3 day hospital stay, maybe 4, maybe 1...depends

but was it an adventure...i've been poked and prodded in just about every place possible....not fun, missed quite the bit of school to be violated. woohoo

that sounds kind of kinky.

PS- don't die :cry:

wow a 4 day stay in a british hospital might become terminal!

 LOL  LOL  LOL thanks ;)  

Enjoy your vacation from school!  LOL  

nah, beginning of summer ;)  

Best of wishs to Galmort  :o
I have all my insides... ;)  

as long as you don't play football or lacross or hockey, you'll be able to function normally

Are you keeping it?

dono...they said i might be able to if i wanted to...but why would i want to? seriously...LOL

somthing to show your grand kids?

eww

It’s rather amazing how much punishment the human body can take… :alien:  

read this gruesome account of a racers ordeal after a bike crash, they couldnt stitch his stomach properly so he had to have a steryle open wound for 3 weeks while they waited for the rest of his skin to regenerate so they could graft it.

LOL ahem. i mean...thats terrible :hmmm:  ;)  :(  

I say keep the kidney in a little jar of formaldehyde next to your computer!  But then, I am a bio nerd.  :D  

dude, he's just having it removed.  it's not like it's some sort of trophy :hmmm:  

Oh come on- medical specimens are awesome!  I'd love to have a kidney floating next to me when I'm on my computer (preferably not my own, but whatever).  Doesn't anyone else think it's cool?  :huh:  

you're an odd one Lanair  :hmmm:  ....

Not really, it would be cool. I reckon you should keep it.

not particularly....

I suppose it would but I don't think a kidney would be the right body part for the job...:unsure:

nope thats why i have a floating eyeball next to my PC mwahaha

I do; it's like a souvenier.

LOL you people are terrible...and an eyeball would just scare the shit out of me...even if it were my own. thus, awesome XD

Ok, then other than a eyeball, what would you suggest?  It's not like you can remove your heart and put it in a jar next to you.  :P  

you cud get a pigmey head that watched you

:huh:

And that's less strange how?  :P  

because it's not really yours.

its 'exotic' (always get that one mixed up) not 'fucking wierd!'  

So having an embalmed head in a jar next to you isn't wierd?  Scary.  :P  

yea but you walk into a room and you have a floating diseased kidney and your gonna go "egh!" or "argh!" or "beans for tea then?". walk in and theres a shrunken head it tends to be "cool!"

..its true :miffed:  

^agrees with galmort and mole^

*Sigh*  I guess you're right.  But... wouldnt it be cool to take the head (or kidney for that matter), and put it in the middle of the family room (or better yet, the kitchen)?  Then when guests come over, you have a conversation piece! :D

or you could get a giants head and make a coffee table, but everytime you had new people round youd get so bored of explaining

not exactly the topic i should be reading at 2AM after throwing up... :sheep:  

is that a chalange?
