I had a hunch that "me dolia hasta el apellido" meant something along the lines of what you wrote. In Guanacaste they have a local expression "estoy hasta la picha" which means "i'm shitfaced" (from being drunk.)

Thanks for the translations!

Or I suppose most literally: "I took out the urge"

A couple fill ins to the best I understand them:

Me dolía hasta el apellido - He was so transcandentally sore from having taken six months off before this outing that not only his body was sore, the soreness extended beyond his body to his last name.

me saqué las ganas - The outing relieved his cravings to catch some waves. When you have the ganas, you have the craving or the urge to do something. Literally, he satisfied his urge.
