For about ten days now, I’ve been getting this nagging little ache in my stomach—right of the belly button. It lasts maybe 10 minutes, then vanishes, only to pop back up a few hours later. Any idea what’s going on?
I did a bit of Googling—mostly looking up appendicitis symptoms—but honestly, I don't think that's it. No diarrhea, no vomiting, my appetite is fine, my leg isn't numb, the pain isn't even that bad, and nothing feels tender when I press on it... plus, my brother had his removed and he was stuck in the hospital for 3 or 4 days in absolute agony before they rushed him into surgery. Has anyone here actually had the surgery but had milder symptoms like mine?
Look, I know the smart move is to just see a doctor, but my schedule is slammed for the next few days and I really don't have the time...
