I think my child has appedicitis, but the medical community tells me no. Her
pain started really 3 weeks ago, in
the center, below her rib cage.
The pain then moved to her belly button (about 1 inch to the right and 1 inch down). That was the first trip to the ER (initial blood work, sonogram, rectal exam) - nothing. We followed with additional blood work to rule out colitis, ulcer, crones, etc., and tried some Nexium.
