Did they tell you anything... any details? I mean, they just said "it's your appendix" and sent you home? Did they tell you how to follow up or give you any sort of treatment advice?

They kept pusshing on my abdomen an gave me a pelvic exam my period had started on that day as well however this was an unusual pain and it was like it was in that one area.It is still inthis one particular area.They gave me a ct scan as well as a pregenancy as well as IV fluid and pain meds.I feel as if I was just drugged enough to be sent home and that was it.But the pain isn't gone however it isn't as intense but I know its still there I'm on meds for nausea as well as pain. WHAT DO I DO

Maybe it's time to make an appointment with a doctor. If this is an appendix issue, you don't want to let it go as it could wind up killing you. If it's something else, you will surely want to know that as well.

Good luck.
