RE: Anxiety Disorder: Should I remove my appendix?

in STEMGeeks3 years ago

Maybe fear of going under the knife I wouldn't opt for "prophylactic surgery". If one is vigilant and proper diagnosis is done appendicitis shouldn't be "big issue" although I never wanted it for anyone.

Sort:  

I think is more about the fear of the unknown. I have heard cases of the appendix bursting, leading to more complications. I just want to be able to nip it in the bud before any complications if I ever get to have it.

BTW, I am not sure anyone would listen to the prophylactic surgery appeal.
