Call an ambulance? Fuck that, you drive to the hospital with a ruptured appendix like a real man. That's what I did.

You joke but I’ve driven to the hospital with 2 dislocated arms because I didn’t want an ambulance bill.

I wasn't joking. 4 years ago my appendix ruptured while I was laying on the couch watching Frasier. It felt like someone popped me in the belly with a rubber band followed by the worst pain I've ever experienced. I made myself get up and go to the bathroom to look in the mirror. I was sweaty and white as a sheet. I called my brother, but he was at work and couldn't answer his phone. I couldn't think to call anyone else so I got in the car and drove the 13 blocks to the hospital.

Luckily, the VA covered the hospital bill.
