My appendix burst and I almost didn't make it through surgery because I have Asthma and my breathing problems caused complications during surgery while under anesthesia. I spent one week in intensive care where they didn't expect me to make it with a button to push for pain meds to make it easier for me. I made it obviously or I wouldn't be writing this now.
From what I have learned since then, the body has a way of healing itself but sometimes it can "over-heal" which can cause other problems. I have a "mass" of tissue that has grown over the years in my abdominal area that is about the size of a soccer ball now. It is not like anything else, it is solid and hard. (Has weight to it.) I'm sure it is causing other problems but I have no insurance and can't afford the high costs of medical care on my own so it lives with me and I jokingly refer to it as "the twin who was never born" from my last pregnancy 11 years ago... LOL (He was a twin by the way, they said one dissolved into me or him and I had one child instead of two.) Anyway, apparently tissue grew to fill in the gaps left from the surgery and appendix bursting but it over-grew. Now I look pregnant even though I'm not.
I have been losing weight and wonder if this type of tissue can be lost the same as fat tissue can?
