Okay, I have some mild sign of appendicitis and I don't know what I should do. It's nothing big - I feel pain in my right side and feel very sick to my stomach. But I was reading up online and those were a couple of the signs. Do I need to do something? Is it possible that it is something else and not my appendix? I started feeling side pains a few hours ago when I woke up from a nap and am just now starting to feel very sick to my stomach - but I have NOT thrown up or anything.

Your side pain has to be excruciating to be certain. You could just be hungry, have a large amt of food in your colon that's working it's way through. You also need other symptoms for an appendicitis. If you just feel slightly sick I would wait. When it becomes too much to bear and the pain is debilitating, go to the doc.

Um go to the Dr and if not that go to emergency. I had the same thing when I was 17 and felt real sick. I went to the Dr and they said they were going to call an ambulance but there was a delay and I needed to get there straight away. My boyfriend was there so he drove me immediately. Please don't muck around with this as if you have had pain for a few days then it is a few days to many. If it is your appendix which it sounds like then if it ruptures at home you might not get to emergency in time to be saved. Not a lot of people die from this but it can happen. I don't know how old you are but if you are old enough to know you don't feel well and something is wrong then you are old enough to take care of yourself and get to medical attention. Best of luck. :)

Might be apendicitis may not be....
your best to go straight to the emergency room as my uncle had apendicitis as a teen woke up with mild symtoms about 1 i the morning went back to sleep got up at 7 got ready for school then just before he went to leave for school he became very ill and his parents phoned an ambulance...
The health team said that if it was left any longer it would have been extremely critical and wost likely the apendix would have ruptured...
Moral of the story is its probaby nothing BUT better safe than sorry....
Best wishes

The soreness could be at the r ight part. Real low.I went to the medical institution as soon as a at the same time again pondering I had appendicitis.The dr. was once pushing on my proper part and I could scream everytime he could push down on my r.part. Without taking any blood or something he stated good it isn't your appendics.I requested him how he might inform it was once'nt and he stated it could'nt harm while he driven down on it but it surely could rather harm while he took the stress off. So thats the change among appedicitis or a contamination of a few variety.

Go to the emergency room! If the appendix ruptures, you can become VERY sick. Get it taken care of now before it gets worse. You will regret it if it ruptures. Trust me!

Go to the nearest ER, they will take a blood sample and a urine test, these will tell beyond a doubt.
