Your coughing from a cold results in a abdominal hematoma! Was taken by ambulance to ER yesterday afternoon bec I was having severe pain....thought maybe appendicitis. They gave me morphine & did CT scan......unbelievable. LOL. I felt so embarrassed but Dr said I did the right thing by coming in. Apparently it was just in front of the appendix & he was thinking the same thing. . . I don't know if I believe him but I felt better.

Wow! That had to be pretty scary hope all is well with you.
Always better to be safe than sorry or dead. Glad it was minor and you didn't have to have surgery.

Thanks. Yes it was very scary. A lot of pain if I didn't move, but really bad if I did. I couldn't believe that much pain was from a 'bruise'! Shee!
