Common Questions and Answers about Appendicitis and bleeding

appendicitis

Avatar f tn ve searched for my simptoms online. This way I found out about stump appendicitis and I got mortified it could be that. Could the CT scan have missed it? All the other organs seemed fine. Last year, I didn't develop fever or vomiting with my appendicitis, reason why it was hard to diagnose, especially because it was behind my ceccum (for 1 month doctors suspected ovary pain...until my appendix burst). Can this time be stump appendicitis and doctors mistake it for cysts again??
Avatar m tn Is there any way I have chronic appendicitis that is coming and going? The pain is usually in the area of the appendix. Also as a side note, I had right side testicular pain that started up around the same time the abdominal pain started years back. Not sure if this is related as the pains seem to happen usually at different intervals.
361454 tn?1312054856 I recently was pregnant and started getting odd cramping sensations that I had never felt before, it ended up being appendicitis, I miscarried I think due to appendicitis, and just had an emergency appendectomy. I'd say follow your gut (no pun intended) For me the "sensations" did not feel "right". When in doubt go to the ER. If I would have, it's possible I could have saved my pregnancy-also possible that it was doomed from the beginning.
Avatar m tn I recently had appendicitis and am still healing from surgery, knowing that I am going to be sore in my abs for a while.
Avatar f tn Exactly 4 weeks later I developed appendicitis and had it removed via laparoscopic surgery, the surgeon said it was "messy in there". I have had no other symptoms suggestive of HIV. My concern is the appendicitis was due to lymphoid hyperplasia (swollen lymph tissue) caused from a viral infection (HIV) given it occurred so soon after exposure. It seems a bit out there to consider them related however I do see it as a possibility, but was unable to find any studies to confirm.
Avatar m tn This is incredible pain, ussually minutes before I will go to the bathroom, and have diarreah. After going to the bathroom, I feel relief and everything calms down, I even feel my colon calmer. As of late though, I have been experiencing abdomen discomfort even if I donĀ“t drink for a month or so, and I am getting a little bit worried. What type of exams or routines would you recommend? Is this serious? Thank you in advance for your response.
Avatar f tn I went to the ER and was told that i had a ruptured ovarian cyst that was bleeding, and that i also had a large amount of fluid and blood in my ovary and that I have another cyst. I am supposed to be meting with my gynecologist here in a few days to figure out what needs to be done, but my mom thinks that they are going to want to do surgery on me.
Avatar f tn Thanks for your response. I have had an upper GI endoscopy but the GI doctor said the was no bleeding and they didn't see anything. Of course this is before the pain gotten as bad as it is now. I am a Veteran and I go to the VA for healhcare. My doctor insists on having an abdominal ultrasound but when I went to the ER, they already did one. I have asked my doctor for a CT scan and HIDA scan but she just said she wanted to repeat the abdoninal ultrasound.
Avatar m tn 4. Appendicitis goes with nausea, vomiting and raised leukocytes in the blood. Appendicitis is painfull at any time you press on area. Bouncing sign is present: lye down on the back and press deeply sopmewhere on your lower LEFT abdomen, then release the pressure quickly. In peritonitis or appendicitis you should feel a sharp pain on the LRQ area. Peritonitis would also show marked inflammation in the blood.
Avatar n tn ,,thats her problem,,,got to watch those carefully,they can rupture,and she can have very heavy bleeding.
Avatar f tn Did anyone check you for kidney issues or appendicitis? An ectopic pregnancy would come up as positive on a pregnancy test even if it was ectopic.
Avatar f tn Hi, About a month or two ago, I believe I had strained some muscles while working out. The pain didn't happen right away maybe one or two weeks afterwards. At first it stemmed from my neck, shoulders, and upper back. Soon after I started to feel pain in my chest, both sides right by my armpits, lower back, and abdomen area especially on my right side. The pain is usually sharp. When I do sit for a long period of time, both my right and left sides hurt but more on my right.
Avatar n tn with IBS and sent away, as in spite of the doctors frequent mention of IBS, I do not seem to have any of the key symptoms, and I also know that bleeding and weight loss are not typically associated with IBS. Any advice on how to have this conversation with the doctors, assuming they find nothing else revealing in the colonoscopy (which of course they might)?
Avatar f tn I am 20 years old, and on Friday July 1st I was brought to the hospital after having pains in the right side of my stomach. They started near my belly button then moved around my stomach. While at the hospital I had a blood test, and an ultrasound done to check for appendicitis. And everything came back normal.
Avatar m tn An appendix is usually on the right side of your stomach and you will usually run a high fever with appendicitis. However, if you are still concerned, you can call your doctor and ask to speak to a nurse.
Avatar n tn I am experiencing exactly what you described now today would be the 4th day... everyone saying I should be at the ER but I am terrified of hospitals. My pain constant in my back on the sides like the flank area and that's a constant dull ache it radiates to my abdominal but there's a sharp pain that goes straight through to the back Right side of abdomen two inches from my naval ...
Avatar n tn I have contact nausea and slight unsteadiness. I have had a CT of my head and a ECG of my heart to rule out anything extremely serious. At times the nausea gets soo bad i feel like i may faint. Also the pains in my abdomen seem to get worse when i eat or after a night out drinking. Then the pain gets very sharp and spreads to the left side and lower left of the back, i get hit by a sudden feeling of weakness and have to lie down.
Avatar f tn now i am developing the same pain again after about 20 hours, so i want to ask can it be appendicitis even if ultrasound doesnt show it? one of my friend got operated last month, she was having the same pain but ultrasound didnt show anything even then she got operated n now is fine!
Avatar f tn Im 10 weeks pregnant and got my appendix removed yesterday (saturday) they told me about the risks with the anastesia and baby, but they also told me that if i left it in and it ruptured id lose baby for sure. Anyone else have their appendix removed and had a perfectly healthy baby?
Avatar f tn 30 am with bad stomach pain (top middle), bloating, and gas. I went the the ER about 6 hours later and received indigestion meds. I felt much better outside of mild abdominal discomfort from gas still. Now the next day my lower right stomach is pretty tender, nowhere else, just lower right side. Should I be worried about appendicitis? Could it be tender from extreme gas and bloating? Thoughts?
Avatar f tn Last night I started having a dull pain on the right side of my abdomen, across from my belly button, it went away today but came back around lunch time. It went away again and now at 2am it has come back. I pressed on my stomach a bit and it send a shooting pain through my belly button area. Its not SUPER painful, just more of a discomfort. I've also started urinating WAY more in the past hour and I'm not sure if its related but my knees began aching REALLY bad out of nowhere.
Avatar n tn An appendix that ruptures is a very serious and life threatening issue and can lead to death due to blood poisoning, also known as septicemia or sepsis.
847328 tn?1289783114 I came home and relaxed and the pain went away. Saturday night, a little twinge came back around bedtime and This morning, I woke up and had a little ache right about where my right hip is, and I would feel little pangs of pain going down to my pelvic area. I am not experiencing bleeding, I do not have a fever or feel sick. I called my MD yesterday, but he did not offer much, just said, take it easy, drink lots of water and call if I had any bleeding.
Avatar n tn d been suffering from a fever, lower/midline abdominal pain on my right side, and severe diarrhea for several days, and was told by my doctor to go to the ER to rule out appendicitis. Besides my signs/symptoms, the only abnormal finding was a slightly enlarged appendix in the ultrasound and CT. I was told to keep an eye out for things, and to go back asap if things got worse- which they likely would within a reasonably short amount of time.
Avatar f tn Call your doctor or go to the hospital. Could be possible miscarriage or appendicitis or a gallbladder attack or something. No matter what it is, you need medical help!
Avatar m tn Perhaps the most facinating part of this episode is that it was one year ago that I suffered what was then diagnosed by experienced medical personnel as probable appendicitis. It also occurred at the end of a long and stressful motorhome trip from western New York to the Florida Key and was treated (at my insistence) with massive anitbiotice and no surgery. The only difference was that last year the pain and inflammation was 10 times greater, with constipation and no appetite whatsoever.
