Not sure if this is the right please to post but I don’t know until I try…
At the beginning of December I started having a pain behind my belly button (like a pulling sensation), I ignored it for a couple of weeks but the pain then started to move into the right side of my tummy. I made a doctors appointment which was for today. Explained everything to the doctor and how the pain is only in the right side and has gotten worse over the last 3 days. She took my temp etc which was all fine then felt my tummy. She said she is pretty certain it’s my appendix but I wasn’t presenting in the typical way for appendicitis, told me to go to A + E if the pain gets worse. Since she pressed on my tummy the pain has gotten worse, although I wouldn’t say severe but it’s painful!
Should I be going to A + E or just wait it out longer? Has anyone else had appendicitis and presented in a similar way? I’m so confused
