[issue] can be fixed if you just lose some weight
Losing weight is easy, just [something I already tried but didn't work]

@CaptainBarbossasHusband Oh yeah, if someone smokes or has excess weight, others blame EVERYthing on that.

@HoeBag yeah... Not as bad as having female anatomy tho...
I had some slight discomfort in my stomach area years ago. It lasted more than 24, and when I finally decided to call the doc, I was asked "any chance you're pregnant?"
I said no, so they told me to walk it off.
12 more hours later the discomfort was still there, so I called again. Got the same question, and that time I lied and said yes.
Long story short: my appendix was removed, and the surgeon told me when I woke up I got lucky cause the appendix was minutes away from rupturing.

@CaptainBarbossasHusband I am curious how someone would know their appendix is in bad shape. I mean obviously for you, abdominal discomfort. Is that typical?

@HoeBag I have a high pain tolerance, so when I have discomfort, I know something's wrong. Especially when it lasts more than a few hours.
I didn't know it was my appendix, but I knew something was very wrong.
Example pf my pain tolerance: I once went to the sink to pour out boiling water (I was making spaghetti) but got distracted and poured it all on myself. My reaction was "oops"
No more, no less.
