When to worry about stomach pains?

I’m being looking into for endometriosis and I’m awaiting surgery in just under 2 weeks. I’ve woken up this morning in pain (stomach) and it’s gotten worse over the day. It’s constantly there with waves of pain. It’s in the bottom slightly right sided and at the top of my stomach as well.

I’ve taken pain killers and it’s not going away, I don’t wanna go to the hospital cos I’ve been enough for pains similar to this (not as bad - mostly bad on period) and don’t want to waste anyone’s time. I feel a bit sick as well I just don’t wanna dramatise it if it’s just the possible endo and I can push through it, if it’s not that and maybe my appendix I would wanna know but I always feel like I’m burdening the doctors everytime I go.

How are you today? I feel the same about the doctors surgery especially as their recorded message says how busy they are. But if you're no better today then think about giving the doc a ring. That's what they're there for.

I’ve had all sorts of issues with the doctors today, I had a appointment booked anyway as I have my surgery and need medication to delay my period and then they just sent a message saying ‘book an appointment with a doctor’ like I did ? A week ago? I thought that’s what the receptionist booked when I clearly asked her to book an appointment with a doctor so I can talk to him?

anyway waiting on a call back, if they don’t call by 5:30pm I’m going to the hospital to get some painkillers and to get the medication to delay my period cos I’ve waited a whole week for this appointment for them to obviously mess up and ‘try get me in today’ even tho I literally booked it for today. So frustrated and in pain
