    Anyone can get a hernia just about anywhere in the body, but this sounds more like your pancreas (or possibly gall bladder), so go to an ER if you can't get to your doctor right away.

    No, I really wasn't worrying about anything but your pancreas.
    If you don't have insurance, they will talk to you afterwards about Pell grants and payment plans.
