You can tell me you won't. Look, if this bladder issue isn't related to the surgery, I’m telling you right now: get your parents to take you to a doctor for some real testing. Bedwetting at eleven years old isn't normal. You need actual medical exams to figure out if we're dealing with a physical issue or something psychological.
First, tell me what kind of surgery you're actually having. They usually provide them for elderly patients or anyone who can't get out of bed during recovery. They’ll probably give you a diaper, or maybe nothing at all since you'd likely just soil the sheet—the mattress is heavily protected anyway. And yeah, make sure you bring up that issue.
You need to download Windows directly from the official Microsoft site before you even think about installing it. It was the exact same deal when I set up my new rig.
You have to tell the anesthesiologist during your pre-op exam that you're on those pills. They'll give you the final word on whether to keep taking them or stop. But don't you dare leave that out—you absolutely have to mention the medication. Do not keep it quiet.

It can't hurt. It’s not like they're pulling a drainage tube out of your gut. Look, I’ve pulled countless stitches in my time. Honestly? None of them hurt. The only slight discomfort was when they were pulling the ones from my navel, believe me. But if you want to talk about the real nightmare, it’s when they pull the drain. It doesn't even "hurt" per se—it's just this revolting, skin-stretching sensation that's hard to describe. Compared to a drain, stitches are nothing. They're child's play.
That's a German hospital. Our hospitals here in the States are top-tier, honestly. Do you have any intention of checking into a US hospital sometime? Or are you staying in Germany for good?

The issue is definitely within macOS. They likely installed an unauthorized version or some outdated build on you, and now it's glitching. We ran into this exact same headache on a brand-new machine, but once we downloaded a clean copy directly from the official site, everything worked perfectly.
Did you install macOS yourself or...? I just grabbed macOS from the official site and picked up a license on eBay for two bucks—everything should work fine. If it still isn't working, we're probably looking at a hardware failure.
Do you have an installation disc for macOS? Start by attempting a clean install of macOS. Before doing that, check the health of your hard drive. Check the CPU temperature to see if it’s overheating. The issue could be anything—macOS, the RAM, the processor, or the hard drive.
They told me straight up: if I'm on my period, I can't go under. I had to pick a surgery date specifically to avoid my cycle. You need to call the head nurse at the unit you've been assigned to. Just ask her directly. Every hospital wing operates by its own set of rules; there's no universal standard.
If you’ve had a blood transfusion, there's no way they’re discharging you the next day. I was stuck in the hospital for four days after what was supposed to be a "routine" surgery. It makes zero sense to them that they'd just let someone go immediately after receiving a transfusion.
silentdriver23 said:After surgery, the surgeon was totally MIA—busy with some meeting or whatever—and just gave instructions to the nurses over the phone. The nurses aren't answering any questions because they claim they don't know anything. This is my sixth surgery, the second one under general anesthesia, and I’ve never bled this much or dealt with two hematomas before. The amount of blood I saw on the clothing in the bag isn't right; there were huge clots everywhere. Since the incision is on the neck, I can't help but wonder if he nicked an artery, which might explain why they're being so secretive. What bothers me most is that I have another surgery scheduled in a few months at a different hospital, also under general anesthesia.
So you didn't see him at all during the post-op? It's suspicious that nobody has any answers. Honestly, it feels like something went wrong and they're playing dumb to cover it up. Some doctors treat you like a specimen during surgery and then completely vanish once it's over. I don't know how much can actually be done now that you've already been discharged, though maybe someone more experienced has an opinion. If you're still feeling weak and looking pale, go get your blood work checked immediately to see where your levels are at.
I think they really should have disclosed if there was a transfusion, even if it isn't explicitly noted in the discharge papers. I don't get why they'd keep that under wraps; it feels like they're just trying to dodge any potential liability. And honestly, before any surgery, we sign those waivers anyway—agreeing to all medical procedures and potential transfusions while accepting the risks. They’ve already covered their bases legally. Did you actually sit down with the surgeon to go over the specifics of the procedure? If a transfusion actually happened, they’d likely be putting her on iron supplements or something similar. You don't just perform a transfusion and then offer zero follow-up or monitoring.

As for that whole thing with the PIN—I haven't run into anything like that yet, so I'm just hoping karma doesn't decide to come knocking on my door tomorrow. 🤣
Unlikely to be a hardware failure. This started right after the last update.
