I am researching things before I go get a test, but I think (and want to be) pregnant. I'm 27 years old and have been pregnant before(about 2 years ago), but miscarried within the first month. My period was due today and hasn't come yet. I was ovulating on September 25th (around that time) and my boyfriend and I had sex without a condom. I'm pretty sure that some of his "kids" ended up inside of me, but he did pull out shortly after.

Please discuss this with your doctor am sure he will provide further assistance. Regards.
I'm a women in her early 30s and 2 months ago I started feeling this dull and consistent pain on the right side of abdomen. After a while it spread to my back (more like burning pain there) and flank pain, all happening on the right side. Urine sample showed microscopic hematuria and after some exams doctors ruled out appendicitis and any kind of gynecological issue. I had abdominal ultrasound and CT as well that showed 13 mm hemorrhagic kidney cyst on my right kidney.
This past Sunday, I was sent home from the ER with a diagnosis of early appendicitis. I'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.
When I eventually reached out for help in early September I was rushed to the E.R. for a possible appendicitis. The CT Scan in the E.R. showed that I had borderline appendicitis due to the appendicitis not filling with the contrast fully and the mesenteric lymph nodes of the area being “shoddy”. I was given Cipro and Flagyl for two weeks to see if that would fight the infection. After an ultrasound, they found my appendix healed completely.

s, it might be worth checking out. Normally, the muscles in the wall of the stomach contract in a coordinated way to move food through the stomach into the small intestine. The autonomic nervous system controls this muscular action. Diabetes can damage the autonomic nerves. This is called diabetic autonomic neuropathy. As a result, the stomach loses it's coordinated muscular activity and doesn't empty the stomach properly.
