Boba Dude and Surgery! (Page 2 of 3)

Yes it was 8 inches all together! No one knows why this tumor forms. Its a rare bone tumor so...

Well everybody I have an update!

Thats my head now!

BD

Wow, so glad that you're ok!

Alright, now for the medical geek in me, those scans are so neat!!  My dad used to work in x-ray and cardiology, and now works in nuc. medicine, so these kinda images always fascinate me.  So, thanks for sharing!

What did they do with the tumor?  I've always wondered about these things....I had a ligament wrapped around my intestines a few years ago and I never even got the see it, I was kinda hoping they would put it in a jar or something for me.

Great to have you back Bucket...i mean " Boba dude." ;D

Everything was geting kinda lonely here without you.

* Shudders * I have some bad memories from the hospital.

They took it too a lab and tested it. The tumor is rare so the know almost nothing about it.

SD_Chick ,

No I won't set off metal detectors. My head will never be "as" strong as it was. But in the question you asked, yes.

Thanks for all of your support!

Wow! I thought getting titanium rods in my back was bad! I hope you are doing ok, I know what it's like to go through major surgery.

Take it easy and feel better!

No I am not a cyborg Humorbot, I have no computer crap in me.

yeah, sugery is not fun.  I was allergic to two of the pain killers they gave me

Puking stomach acid all day is NOT fun at all.

I am duing just find now.  My scare is almost invisible now

Thank God for Childrens Hospitl.

Laughing gas is fun/wierd.

Technically he is not a cyborg as he his not kept alive by a mechanical or electronic device. But I can see how someone might think that. Darth Vader is a cyborg.
I am occasionally called RoboMan....:lol:

I kinda know what you mean, I had my appendix removed when I was reeeeally little, and me and my mom both wanted to keep it. But hospital protocol wouldn't let us. >< They only let us keep the gas mask they used on me. That alone freaked out all of my friends, so God knows what an an entire ORGAN would've done to them. o_o

Boba Dude, you're so lucky to have a small, nearly invisible scar.....the appendix scar I have is HUGE, and noticible. It sucks, because unless I wanna wear some sort of granny one piece, its totally visible in a bathing suit.... Or even normally, if my shirt starts to ride up on me. D=

Metal plate though... >.> Does that mean if someone raps on your head they'll get some sort of bang? =O

Hey Boba Dude, I missed this thread originally (probably because I was on my honeymoon in May). Glad to see everything is healing well. By the way the pics are awesome. Must feel a bit unreal to look at that and know it's you

Ceilia, I'm not sure if it works on older scars - but paw paw cream is great for healing and leaving little to no scarring. I've got a scar on my chest, under my right breast, where I had a small tumor removed (also benign). It used to be fairly pink and icky looking. Over the years it's reduced in size and is the same colour as my skin. So don't fear

My Mother gave me and ARC a gift at dinner yesterday. guess what it was? The newest pic of MY head, ON A SHIRT! I am soooo wearing it to school today!

Again, thanks for everbody's support. The place rocks, everybody is SOOOOOOOO nice here!

BD      (aka, Metal head)

I was joking about his skull stopping a bullet. According tho my dictionary, a cyborg is "a being, usually human, who has mechanical or metallic implants." We are getting rather off topic however.
