If he had been suffering through it for a week he likely feels great if for nothing than the relative pain levels. Just be careful, Big Mike.

"“There’s never a good time for a medical situation. I think the most important part of it is the love and support and medical care that was available immediately. I’m just very thankful for that.” McCarthy on the league memo sent out after Eagles head of security was involved in a sideline altercation with 49ers LB Dre Greenlaw: “Well, they won’t have to worry about me personally this week for sure. I won’t be misbehaving at all.”

damn
Look I know laproscopic appendectomy is FAR less invasive than open appendectomies like the one I had.

That said - they still cut three holes into him, shoved some metal tools into his gut and cut a piece of his intestine off. Pretty tough.

His dedication is inspiring. Hopefully, his players will be that much more inspired by it also. His physician has cleared him and any detrimental outcomes are basically none but I hope he does not do too much too soon.

LOL @ "My understanding is when you have an appendix you got to get the surgery." Yeah. You best believe that surgery ain't optional.

Look, I had the same surgery but for a hernia which is far worse and at age 50, and was walking the next day, moving pretty good., pretty freaking sord hard to get up and sit down but other than that not limited much..30 days later 100% back to all work and sports etc..its is because of the less invasive. Only the area around holes are sore, easy to tough it out if you want too.

I’m sure Mike is feeling great after dealing with that pain. At worst, he has the ‘shoulder farts’

That would be some shoulder pain resulting from the CO2 that was pumped into his cavity. Thar air accumulates near the shoulder to dissipate.

Situations like this reminds us fans that no matter how well-paid the men and women in professional sports are, and the celebrity status + rewards that accompanies their positions - it does not make them immune to the conditions, diseases and maladies the rest of us go through.

Glad you're back Mike..now beat the damn eagles please.

I think Big Mike had a low invasive laparascopy done to remove the infected appendix. Basically a couple of tiny incisions in the skin of the abdomen then snake in a cable camera and work with small surgical tools to remove the appendix.

I understand that while they were inserting the camera lower belly right side they took the scenic route and came across bacon strips hanging over intestines and a triple cheeseburger that somehow made its way out of the stomach and wedged itself comfortably in the cecum, a pouch connected on the large intestine which is around the corner to the colon. Holy Hopping Gizzards.

On a serious note, this is a good way for Big Mike to be back on the sidelines in a couple of days.

Along with the head MD contracted to the Cowboys medical staff.
