WWE Hall Of Famer Underwent Successful Appendix Removal Surgery

WWE

A WWE Hall of Famer has underwent successful appendix removal surgery.

Trish Stratus recently made her return to WWE and got into a confrontation with Damage Control on the August 22 edition of WWE Raw.

Stratus took to social media to share that she had undergone successful surgery to remove her appendix.

In an Instagram post, Trish Stratus noted that she had been feeling a nagging pain in her lower right quadrant.

The WWE Hall of Famer was working through the pain and prepping for an announcement, which she will make on 9/19.

However, she wound up driving herself to the hospital and discovered that her appendix was about to burst.

The caption reads:

A reminder that if you ever have a nagging pain in your lower right quadrant – do go to emergency…

After a crampy 10 hour travel day on Monday I was working through the pain on Tuesday prepping for an announcement (which I will post tomorrow). I have a pretty high pain tolerance so when what I thought was  cramps but ended up getting pretty intense I drove myself to emergency and turns out my appendix was getting ready to burst – which can be really bad if it happens and like cause death and stuff so I’m really glad I went to check it out, you know to avoid the whole dying thing.

Some takeaways – listen to your body. Dr. Google told me appendicitis was pain in the lower right abdomen, so that’s why it took me a while to think it was that because at first the pain was all across my belly. But after getting another Dr. Google’s opinion (reading another article) I found out it will start as pain across your stomach (also was tender to touch) but as the appendix gets more inflamed the pain will migrate to the right side and continue to to get worse. And boy did it. Turns out it’s an organ that serves no function so good riddance old pal.

Got 3 new scars to add to my body badges and one less organ … recovery hasn’t been too bad so far, definitely manageable. Just wanted to check in! xo

Big thanks to my OR team at @mackenziehealth!!
