Yes, it could have been.

Music to my ears...I spoke with my surgeon this morning, Dr. Laguna, and asked him if by chance my Lutsen hospital experience and this experience could have been correlated and he said YES! I told him I didn't come in for so long this time as I was feeling the same way in Lutsen and had very little results come from that hospital experience and the many other doctors visits there after. He explained that my appendix could have been blocked and fixed itself back in February (and that often times that happens in children, but less often in adults) and then got blocked once again recently! Oh big sigh of relief. Here's to no appendix!

Here are a few more photos from SD.
