Does this sound plausible to you?!
Question: Does this sound plausible to you.?
On a Friday you are having abdominal pain. You go to the urgent care. They tell you that you gave appendicitis and will need to come in for surgery on Saturday morning... You have the surgery at 9am on Saturday morning, and are released from the hospital later that evening. You are told by the doctor that you can go back to work on Monday.
If you were told this by a friend, possible love-interest. Now you have no reason to think they are lying, but this sounds a little iffy. I've never had appendicitis before so I don't know personally, but every website I've looked at says that they keep you in the hospital at least overnight to make sure there are no complications. And that most of the surgeries are done same day that they catch it that way they can get it out before it bursts.
Am I being too paranoid about this.. Oh and did I mention that we were suppose to go out on a date Friday night....he text me early in the day to tell me that he had appendicitis and about the surgery. His exact text message was "Guess who gets to get his appendix out in the morning :( "
The way I see it, I have two choices. I can either accept this and just reschedule the date and see if he bails again, or I can confront him about my feelings of uneasiness about this... what do you think.? And please only serious answers.Health Question & Answer

There are always conditions so give him the benefit of the doubt but don't expect too much. It is far better to be trusting than skeptical and sheltered.Health Question & Answer
It is very plausible. It happened to me. Sometimes if the hospital is really busy and its not going to kill you they will tell you to come the next day. Just reschedule. You are being to clingy and paranoid about this. You won't be able to keep up the relationship if you keep feeling like this every time he fails to make a date.Health Question & Answer
He is lying. First off they would have taken it out then or kept him there till they could. Second No Dr. would schedule a surgery on a Saturday.

check for the stitchesHealth Question & Answer
Same day surgery can take place particularly if it was done laproscopically or through a key hole procedure. Going back to work early may have been his choice and not necessarily his Dr's recommendations.
Did he have any reason to lie to you.? Seems like an incredible excuse to use just to stand you up.
You have to ask yourself whether you really want to be with this man. If the answer is yes then you will have to give him the benefit of the doubt on this occasion. Stay with him long enough and you will eventually see the surgical scar if in fact he underwent surgery.
Good luck with it all but only you can decide what you want to do with this friendship.Health Question & Answer
