Could be my appendix.

I posted the other day about having pain in the lower right side of my stomach. Today when I woke up I could barely move. So I called my OB and she is on vacation this week. I talked to the nurse who explained my symptoms to her partner and he thinks it has to do with my appendix and that I should go to an urgent care center or ER today. This can't be good! Anyone ever expereince problems with their appendix?

Mine is horrible when I'm walking, putting pressure, rolling out of bed, etc. And is the worse when I put pressure on my left side. When I'm sitting or laying, it's more of a dull pain that I can totally stand.

Opinions?

Re: Could be my appendix.

  • I don't have personal appendix problems but a good friend of mine has a chronic condition that causes regular inflammation of his appendix.  If I were you, I'd go and have it checked out.

  • Did you have a c section? I had that exact pain after mine and my dr wasn't worried about it. Now I'm fine. It's very unnerving though, so I would definitely go to the ER or something if they told you to!

    No, I had a vaginal delivery!
