Yesterday afternoon I had a really bad cramp in the middle of my stomach. I just switched birth control 2 weeks ago to seasonale and I thought maybe its a cramp but I'm not due for my period til October. I took a tylenol and went to sleep. When I woke up a few hours later I felt very nauseus. My boyfriend brought me some dinner from McDonalds, I was able to keep it down but I had that feeling like just before you throw up for several hours. After that I felt ok and just went to bed. I woke up this morning and felt ok until I started to walk to my car and from my car to my work (which is about a 10 minute walk) it feels like someone is jabbing me in my right side with a dull knife and if I sneeze (which I do often due to allergies) it feel like someone is sticking a knife in me turning it over and over. I had a similar pain to this in my left side after I passed out and my doctor said I just pulled a muscle but nothing has happened to suggest that. Now it feels like I was hit by a train

And the pain in my side comes in waves it seems.
My friend said it sounds like appendicitis but I feel like I should be in more constant pain. I really dont want to go to the doctor and them tell me it's just a woman cramp like they always do.
I had a slight fever yesterday of 100.2 but I haven't checked it today.
What's going to happen if its appendicitis?

It may be appendicitis, or food poisoning. In either case, you need to see a doctor. If it is appendicitis, your appendix will have to be removed. if it is food poisoning, they can give you something to relieve the nausea/vomiting and advise you to drink plenty of fluids. Good luck.

pain in the right side and a fever could be appendicitis. Go to a doctor! You need to get it checked out especially since it seems like it is getting worse. If it ruptures you will be in deep trouble. Go to the doctor NOW!

you need to go see a doctor. If you have pain in the right lower abdominal region, you can have inflamed appendix. If it bursts you may die.
