Any of you baws ever had appendicitis?

Yes, I had it, but mine came on much worse. Started throwing up and eventually ended up folded over on the bathroom floor. Couldn't stand up straight to walk if I tried.

I had discomfort for probably 2 or 3 months that I thought was just bad gas. Never really sharp pains or got sick but just uncomfortable. It did get bad enough towards the end that I went to the ER and ended up having surgery that night. Dr said mine had a slow leak and was fortunate it didn't burst. I'd probably go get it checked out if I were you.

Am I panicking or should I think about getting checked out?

Maybe panicking a bit, but if you have the time and the means, get it done for the sake of your psyche.

My appendix exploded when I was 10. Woke up in the morning hurting, showed my mom where it hurt (she knew I wasn't fricking around when I dropped trow), and she drove me to the doc. Doc examined me, said it was probably appendicitis. Mom responds that her brother is a surgeon in Birmingham and she will take me there. Doc says, no, take this child to the local ER right now. shite exploded on the way. Spent a week in the hospital before gleefully playing smear the queer with my friends on a bunch of pain pills shortly thereafter.

How’s your appetite? That was a big trigger for me- I didn’t think have an appetite for 2 days.

Same. Christmas eve my sophomore year of highschool. At the grandparents and didn't feel like eating. No big pain or anything, just didn't feel right.

Didn't sleep that night. It was the Christmas after the big Sosa/Mcguire homerun battle season because I remember ESPN had a special recapping it on a loop all night. The next morning I told my mom something wasn't right. She grabbed her copy of one of those medicine for the family books everyone used to have and a few minutes later she asked if my right side was tender, it was, and she said "you have appendicitis, let's go."

The doctor confirmed it in the ER and they took it out an hour or two later.

Get it checked out. You don’t mess with appendicitis.

I had it three times in my life. The first time I thought it was food poisoning or something because I threw up everything I ate the night before. The second time I just played it off as something else. The third time was the worst. The doctor ran some tests and took me straight to the ER. It was the first surgery I ever had.

Mine ruptured when I was 10 years old and it was BAD.

Get checked out!!!

My appendix was removed and replaced with fütnotes.

Probably alcohol induced. Seen it a lot over the holidays

Yes, two months ago. I woke up around 4 AM with extreme pain in my right abdomen. Tried for two hours to get back to sleep. Got up and took two Tylenol and felt much better. Had pain still just much less. Went about my day taking Tylenol as needed toughing it out. Which is not what I should have done with something as deadly as an appendicitis. Went to sleep the next night and once again woke in the early morning in extreme pain. Then I decided to drive to the ER. I got there and the Doctor prodded my abdomen and I didn't react. So they ordered X-Rays, almost immediately rushed back and told me I had an acute appendicitis. They prepped me for surgery and off I went to the OR. I was in the hospital overnight then took a Lyft home. I had two of my friends retrieve my car that same day.
