Freaking out about Appendicitis

[CDanielle98]

I know it's silly I've done it a million times but I'm freaking out I have appendicitis. I have a slight ache in my lower right quadrant and its not sensitive to the touch or when I lift my right leg when laying down but I'm still worrying. Any tips

I had my appendix removed three years ago after a sudden attack. My pain was at a 9/10 and started in the middle of my abdomen and worked its way down to my pelvic region. I never ever got pain in my side. If your appendix was close to rupturing I am assuming your pain would be much much higher. Even when my pain was a 9, I was in the hospital for a couple of days before we decided surgery was the best option. Please don't worry! There are far worse things than appendicitis and it doesn't sound like you have it. I hope this helped! Please try to relax
