I had acute appendicitis in the middle of the pandemic - only 2 patients on the ward and 8 Thai nurses. My symptoms were nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain. The first doctor gave me a wrong diagnosis at the bedside. Another doctor didn't come until the morning, did a release test and beng, so painful. 10 minutes later with siren and light to the nearest hospital, CT scan and 3 hours later laparoscopic surgery. A woman from the kitchen asked me what I wanted to eat the next morning, etc. I ordered meat broth with butter. She didn't want to believe it. As a former old school nurse, I know that sugar, fruit, vegetables and dairy products are not given after an operation. The older surgeon told me that I was eating too much fiber/vegetables. How right he was, the ketogenic diet with 200g of vegetables every day was the death knell for my appendix. Now I eat a carnivore diet. Finally, peace in the intestines.
@@petebeasttexashomesteading not at all -But before the operation I had a painful nasal swab that left me with a bleeding nose. That was one of the brutal sides of this would-be pandemic
There was a lot going on in you post surgery - those 3 rounds of IV antibiotics have also played havoc with your gut, it's going to take awhile to rebuild xx Glad you're healing! Thanks for sharing ❤
After surgeries, or severe trauma/injuries, our family has always just sipped chicken or beef broth for a couple of days. If we got antibiotics, we started eating yogurt and drinking kefir after the 3rd or 4th day to begin gut repair. Glad you are on the mend, Pete, and that you caught it in time!!
First scan was without dye and then the one with dye. They do without and with scans. You were bloated because of your microbiome gut was messed up from the antibiotics and that processed food. I fast a lot, so I would have water fasted to get my autophagy going until I got out of there. You are still young eating carnivore and you know more than many, but there's a lot you still need to learn about the body. I'm thankful that God gave us a body that will heal itself, when treated right. Since you have been carnivore, you no longer have the gut enzymes for fruit and vegetables, but it is possible to get them again. Some day down the road, if you want, you can resume vegs and fruits, but that's up to you. Your system might be healed by then. I, personally, prefer the simplicity of carnivore. Glad that's behind you and praying for smooth sailing from here. Thanks for your honesty in what you ate post-op. Have a blessed day!
I’m glad you are doing better. Crazy how our body’s can’t take the veggies anymore. I ate some tomatoes that I grew and my back started aching and cramping. I thought maybe I could start adding back foods and be on a more keto diet. Nope. Maybe because they are a nightshade plant. IDK. Good luck with your recovery ❤️🩹
Yeah I decided not to try adding anymore vegetables back into my diet after seeing all the symptoms come back. We've been having some oxalate dumping since we've changed to carnivore and it's just not worth going back and loading up on oxalates again.
So sorry you’re having a lot of digestive issues, must be from the carb toast & sugary juice they gave. Best to just fast some more & just ask for beef/chicken broth & water kefir, I sure hope they have water kefir bc it’s the best drink after being on antibiotics. Wishing you fast healing ❤️🩹
I had the same reaction as you from the contrast dye for the cat scan. At first I had nausea, felt the burning sensation. I turned completely beet red head to toe and projectile vomited. They quickly injected benadryl. The ER doc advised me to never get that again because the next time will be ten times worse, guaranteed. Now I make sure to indicate on any medical form that I am allergic to contrast dye. Glad to see you’re doing better.
Yours is a good cautionary tale. I'm a gardener and every summer I add homegrown vegetables to my meals. I haven't noticed any issues (yet) but I will pull back and use the vegetables sparingly. I hope you feel better soon!
Awww shame I'm glad you're doing better. I had similar surgery with the laparoscopic surgery. I had 8 incisions and a c-section and 15 inches of my colon removed. But considering, I healed really quickly. I know you'll be great in no time.
So glad you went to the hospital and had yourself checked out. Thanks for describing the symptoms. I would suggest meat broth with some slow cooked meat in it to ease your system back into gear. Don’t push it.
I'm sorry you had to go through this. The first thing I do with any kind of acute inflammation is do what the animals naturally do: Stop eating, start fasting until you feel better. It might have prevented the medical intervention. You made it worse for yourself by eating toast and drinking apple juice. If you would have stayed fasted you would have been on the mend way faster. Your body was actually telling you what to do: no appetite? Stop eating. We need to listen to the signals our bodies give us. And break the fast with carnivore items only, obviously. Don't be scared of fasting, we have stored energy for months. Trust your body, it knows best. I hope you get well soon, sir!
And I wish he didn't assume that doctors know bad because they don't. Doctors are trained in medical schools. Pharmaceutical companies subsidize those medical schools, so do big industry. Doctors are taught to prioritize drugs, medications and procedures. This results in money being made. They are not taught how to prioritize health because there is less money to be made that way. And you're right about the juice and the toast. That is the worst thing he could have done for himself. It contributed to the inflammation and made him feel worse. He ate the worst things. How does someone who knows as much as he knows now, how did he fall into that trap? He could have asked for a couple of burgers and just eaten the meat or just fasted as his body needed him to do.
@@Kyarrix We've drifted away from nature, most people don't know the basics anymore. Like you said: we rely on doctors, all of them schooled by the pharma industry. When you're new to keto/ carnivore and we feel pain or discomfort it doesn't occur in our minds anymore there's natural (and often very simple) ways to fix this, and we fall back to what we were taught for about 100 years: call the doctor. I had the same spasm reaction in my early keto + carnivore days when I got heart palpitations that I never had before. It was scary, I thought this was 'the big one.' The first reflex is 'dial 911.' I didn't, and instead did a YT search on my symptoms + keto and found out it's probably an electrolyte imbalance. And it was, the palpitations were gone in 15 minutes after having some potassium pills. Especially when starting a low carb proper human diet abruptly, these kind of things can occur. But I digress. We can fix (or let our body fix) all these ailments if we take the time to do some research for ourselves. All we need to do is feed it proper foods, maybe take a supplement, or just stop eating for a while. YT University contains a lot of knowledge in that regard.
I enjoyed this description. Your presentation is so calming and detailed, in spite of the problems you went through. Anyone can do the pressure and release test for appendicitis - push and release. If the pain was on release, it's appendicitis. I was in pharma research years ago. We used carrageenan to cause arthritis in rats - looking for a drug for that. Most of those 'meal replacements' have carrageenan. Also found in dairy products, even organic cottage cheese. Read labels and avoid this. Inflammation, including GI and arthritis, will decrease. My arthritis actually disappeared. Also, the contrast they gave you for the CT scan was probably the heavy metal gadolinium, which can damage the kidneys. A 2006 NEJM article shows that taking NAC before and for 2 days after will reduce the number patients with significant kidney damage from 34% to 9%. Look up the study for dosages and give the paper to your doc. He should give NAC, to you or you can take it yourself. Thanks for all of your content.
Hey, hope you continue to recover quickly. Have you considered blending a cooked steak? I heard somewhere that after cooking whatever choice of meat, then blending it somehow, making a purée of it helped someone that didn’t have the teeth. Maybe some sort of method like this may help you? Take care. Thanks for sharing your experiences.
You looked like you've lost a lot of weight. I am glad to see you back. Hope you're feeling better. Sending positive vibes and prayers. P.S. When I had my appendix removed, for the whole two weeks post-surgery, all I could eat was boiled purple yam (imported from Hawaii).

You weren't hungry, your body needed to fast. You did not need to get nutrition in you as you stated. You added to inflammation by eating all of those sugary starchy foods when your body was trying to heal.
Hey 👋 , I'm about the same age as you here in Texas. I had my appendix surgery in the 1990s .I had the pain for 4 or 5 days , disiced to go to er. They heard my symptoms mashed and said does that hurt , lol I said hell yes , they saw the blood test , and said your going to surgery now .Went home the next day. They went in on my right side. Not that much pain , I don't know I think you have all the discomfort from the way they did the surgery.
Man glad you are doing good now , I was thinking about you going to eating just meat and no vegetables, that just sounds weird that both of you having the same issues with eating vegetables, have you looked into if you where using out sourced compost mite have chemicals in it or it could be well water if you are using a well , or maybe the rain water tanks are getting to much Bird crap in them and causing it I seen a book talking about that causing issues, or maybe a organic spray you have used on your place , just sounds real weird that both of you getting the same symptoms. Have a blessed day
My husband was misdiagnosed when he was 17. They almost lost him because the Dr gave him a shot and said it was flu, another day passed. Luckily a foreign Dr was passing through our area and knew he needed emergency appendectomy. He laid a week in a coma as back then they had to figure out what infection they were dealing with as multiple hoses were sucking out gangrene. He has awful scars now. And two hernias in that area. I’m not so sure about carnivore diets either. Meat digests very slowly. Everything in moderation. Knew someone who ate too far the other way with lots of fiber and now has celiac disease as I think the filia were wore off in the intestines.
What an experience! Yep, all that sugar in fruits is a real problem. Bet you'll heal better once you get back on your carnivore high fat diet. 😊 Best to you!
OMG U sure looking thin Pete, but glad U start feeling better. I remove my apendix when I was 12, so no problem there. See U in the next one. *Thumbs up*
I had my appendix removed three years ago. I woke up in the morning feeling fine but by noon I was having severe pain in my abdomen. Went to the hospital and they removed the appendix.
Lord Pete don't mess around with your body it's talking to you, and if you ever have chest pain, don't wait go right then....❤ it's hell to get old 😂 Hospitals and sleeping don't get a long 😂 yup no good food in hospitals 😢 just take it easy don't over do it...yes hard to find anything worth eating it's crazy I'm diabetic hard to find anything without sugar 😢...Maybe eat berries I eat more berries now days, I'm cutting back on vegetables no fruits......it's hard to set and eat all meat...my heart Dr probably wouldn't like that....buy I'm going to keep trying at 66 I'll try anything....Have a great day Pete...
Do you think it was all the sugar in the watermelon that may be kept you awake. And is it possible that the wheyy protein had ingredients in it that caused such a histamine response? Because watermelon is actually a low histamine food. However, with that being said, I know what you mean there are things that I just can’t touch anymore after having eliminated them for so many years I tend to blow up like a balloon, like an allergic reaction. Similar to what you are explaining what happened to your wife.

I'm not sure if the oxalates could cause an inflamed or infected appendix but I do know it's when food gets stuck in there and can't get out, then it will get inflamed and infected.
I cut out carbs and only eat meat and vegetable and my inflammation is zero. I could never imagine only eating meat. I think think that would be a bad idea.
Now, I am a little worried. I started carnivore diet three weeks ago and had a odd pain on my right side and stomach all day and night yesterday. It better not be this diet. 😂🤪
@@PhilippeFernandez it's not the diet, if it were, then you shouldn't eat any other type of diet because other people have this problem too eating other types of food.
Can a carnivore diet cause appendicitis? Consumption of diets rich in animal protein, saturated fat, or sodium, and low in fibre are associated with increased risk of acute appendicitis.Cambridge University Press: 22 March 2023
@@metapatriot not so, 99.99% of the people that have appendicitis are not carnivore but eat a SAD diet or vegan/vegetarian diet. Appendicitis happens when food gets stuck in the appendix and can't get out. Especially undigested pieces of vegetables and small seeds. This could happen to anyone that eats food.
@@petebeasttexashomesteading I found another study "Oxford Vegetarian Study" that found Meat-eaters had the highest proportion of emergency appendectomies (10.7 percent) within the sample However the study was inconclusive and I think may have been bias. I looked into literature about the appendix and found it is used to store good bacteria for animals that are mostly vegetarian or herbivores appendix is not found in dogs or cats. In your case I wonder if a sudden diet change to "Carnivore " diet could have been a factor? According to what I have read besides the benefits there are certain precautions, side effects and supplements recommended for changing to a carnivore diet. I also found a good video on TH-cam titled , "Vegetables are literally a scam" that is very interesting , about natural pesticides in plants (mostly leaves and greens) that are problematic to our health. Glad you're OK looking forward to more videos.
The appendix is just a storage place for the beneficial bacteria in your gut and in times where your gut needs the beneficial flora, the appendix will repopulate the colon with good bacteria.
Glad you’re on the road to recovery!! That was no fun..👎🏼👎🏼 Curious question… did you notice an allergy reaction to the hospital food, like with the watermelon? Wonder if it’s just melons..high sugar foods… have you noticed the same allergy reaction with low sugar foods..like green beans, or lettuce, etc.? 🤔
These vlogs are going to teach folks that are very ignorant to modern medicine and are practicing dangerous diets the effects of long term ignorance. I am seeing in the comments section very irrational and downright ridiculous statements. These comments come from many individuals who barely went through high school, but now think they are masters of healthy living. I have been to hospitals and had all kinds of tests including CAT scan. I came out of it in great shape and the food in the hospital was fine. You look at the labels with chemical names and think they are all bad, just look at anything we eat naturally and they all have chemical names, example water H2O. This is how scientists describe our food source. I hope the best for you Pete and your wife, but you have set yourself believing in a very wrong way to eat and the modern medicine advances that you are disregarding except when you are scared to death like appendix surgery because of the serious pain you could no longer treat with herbs and spices. I see health issues down the road. Unfortunately fear mongering and conspiracy theories are heading some folks down the wrong path. My best to you and your wife!

The appendix is just a storage place for the beneficial bacteria in your gut and in times where your gut needs the beneficial flora, the appendix will repopulate the colon with good bacteria.
The reason you feel bloated is that they push air into your belly so it is easier to see. It will slowly be absorbed.
The enjection radioactive?
Not sure, they just told me it was iodin.

I would’ve just had beef bone broth and scrambled eggs.. lol
we don't need fiber
Gosh are the aches because of the sugar content in the watermelon? Interesting! My husband loves watermelon & he complains of arthritic pain!
Glad you’re on the road to recovery!! That was no fun..👎🏼👎🏼 Curious question… did you notice an allergy reaction to the hospital food, like with the watermelon? Wonder if it’s just melons..high sugar foods… have you noticed the same allergy reaction with low sugar foods..like green beans, or lettuce, etc.? 🤔
@@TexasMyTexas The only reaction I had was not being able to sleep. My wife had all her symptoms come back plus not being able to sleep.
Ugh.. one of the worst things..tossing and turning. God speed on your recovery.. ☺️
Waiting for you to say Bone Broth...
I almost went out and bought some organic chicken and beef bone broth. But I'm now back to eating solid food again.
@@petebeasttexashomesteading have you considered making your own, then freeze dry it?

Hopefully they did not put a tracking chip in you.

These vlogs are going to teach folks that are very ignorant to modern medicine and are practicing dangerous diets the effects of long term ignorance. I am seeing in the comments section very irrational and downright ridiculous statements. These comments come from many individuals who barely went through high school, but now think they are masters of healthy living.
I have been to hospitals and had all kinds of tests including CAT scan. I came out of it in great shape and the food in the hospital was fine. You look at the labels with chemical names and think they are all bad, just look at anything we eat naturally and they all have chemical names, example water H2O. This is how scientists describe our food source.
I hope the best for you Pete and your wife, but you have set yourself believing in a very wrong way to eat and the modern medicine advances that you are disregarding except when you are scared to death like appendix surgery because of the serious pain you could no longer treat with herbs and spices. I see health issues down the road.
Unfortunately fear mongering and conspiracy theories are heading some folks down the wrong path. My best to you and your wife!
did you take the covid vaccine?
NEVER!
