No, I haven't got any disease. I had appendicitus. (I'm 15 so it's quite common at around this age) After recovering from the operation for that, (4 weeks in hospital) I was fine for a while until the blockage happend. An appendictus operation always leaves a chance for a blockage in the future. And my appendicitus was really bad (hence the long time in hospital), so bad in fact that technically I should have been dead. But lets not dwell on that. Back on topic: because they had to mess with the intestine during the appendicitus operation, there was the chance of an adhesion, where upon the walls of the intestine get stuck together. A couple of months later this happend and so caused the blockage. This, in turn, led to my second ever operation in the space of a few months. It was awful: the worst year of my life but at least I have a hefty scar to show off. [img]tongue.gif[/img]
