Appendix or something else very worried

Hi I woke up Tuesday morning with what I can only describe as tenderness in my lower right side it hurt to cough bend etc .
I went to the doctors which I don't usually do and they said oh it's your appendix I was a bit shocked as I felt generally ok.
I went to the hospital and was seen by three doctors one was a surgeon they did some bloods and said my inflammation marker was in normal range but my cell count was up a bit.
They examined me three times and said it wasn't my appendix even though when he pressed down it was total agony.
They then sent me to a gyno who said my PID had come back as I've had it before how she can tell off one examination who knows.
Anyway like I said the pain isn't unbearable but it's been there two days now I can eat and everything normally but I'm googling and I'm panicking myself as some people said the pain isn't that bad all the time.
I've got three Children so I have to be here for them excuse the drama.
I just am hurting to walk bend etc and they did say I have a hernia aswell which no one seemed bothered about .
I've had PID before and it was more like period pain which I couldn't pin point not a pain in my sides I'm sitting here worrying sick can anyone help 😢

A sixth opinion? OP - what makes you think this isn't PID? Are you getting worse or just not getting any better? It could be worth a chat to your GP if you need things clarified and/or to understand why each decision was taken.
