i cant really remember because i was 6 years old when i had mine taken out bt i just wanted to let you know that it is extremely dangerous and if you do think it is i would go to ER now!

i do remember not being able to eat anything and just being in agonising pain. i couldn't walk. my grandpa had to carry me to the hospital from the car

I hear it is generally really bad pain that starts out generalized closer to the belly button and moves to the right side. I've never had it, so I can't say from personal experience.

its like 3 inches to the right of my belly button. it goes up and down about a 5 inch span. its like a stabbing searing pain...

oh smurf!

Quoting PooterButt'sMommy:" oh smurf!"

can you eat or walk? how long have you had the pain?

Quoting XxWhite_RosexX:" can you eat or walk? how long have you had the pain?"

i can eat some. get halfway through it and feel full, like if i take one more bite i gag. it hurts pretty much constantly. been getting worse the last 3 days or so..

yes i would definalty go to er. sound just like when i was younger. its very dangerous if it bursts.

Quoting XxWhite_RosexX:" can you eat or walk? how long have you had the pain?"

also, i have been going from feeling fine, to absolutely freezing out of nowhere but don't feel like i have a fever.

i would definalty go and get checked out you have some of the symptoms and appendicitis isnt one to take lightly

if you have had it for 3 days already i wouldn't wait any longer if the pain has been consistent
