Are you suffering from some kind of gastrointestinal problems? Maybe that's why you feel so bloated and have so much pain.

If you have checked for appendicitis and everything is alright then maybe is your IBS. Maybe you need stronger medication for it. Has your doctor ordered a more thorough exam to see what can be causing this pain?

Please have your appendix looked at. It's nothing to mess around with. It also acts like a hurricane. A lot of pain, and then when the eye of the storm comes, some relief & you feel you've imagined it... Don't be fooled. That's when it could rupture. I know because I was labeled with IBS, went to the ER, sent home, and doctor treated me for constipation. Well, wouldn't you know, a few years later we found the source of my pain. My appendix had imploded & is now a bundle of scar tissue.
