Haha, yeah, the surgeon was all excited to tell me how mine was abnormally long, and that's what saved me from worse consequences despite the rupture; she had never seen the appendix sorta wrap in on itself to contain things.

pain tolerance is a funny thing. I've gained mine from years of dental operations, and unfortunately in this case it led me to vastly misjudge the situation. Thankfully my wife gave me a stronger pair killer and at 11pm told me to get my ass to ER pronto. Which saved me.
