MY SON IS GOING THRU THE SAME THING. WE HAVE BEEN TO 8 DOCTORS INCLUDING A CANCER CENTER. HE HAD A SCAN THIS WEEK AND THEY FOUND CALCIUM IN HIS APPENDIX. WE ARE MEETING WITH A SURGEN ON WEDNESDAY.
First of all, I am male! I've check my gallbladder and kidney......and the result is normal!
I've consulted many doctor(around 6-7). Many times, I ask doctor if it's chronic appendicitis. All of them said that's not possible because no fever, no increasing white blood cell etc. Meanwhile, they told me that chronic appendicitis is rare. Even though chronic appendicitis exist, it will not last for so many month! Recently, a doctor claim that it may be referal pain cause by spine! I'm so lost that I lost everythings!
Actually, I want to kill myself. Since no matter sitting, walking, sleeping and standing, pain is all around!
Lower right quad pain can be gallbladder disease- it spreads to your back and shoulder. Have your ovaries checked- does it fluctuate with your periods? Itmay be an ovarian cyst that comes and goes with your period. Dis they check the bladder and kidney? You really have to be pushy at the doctor's office. Good luck
Ive been having mild chronic lower right quadrant pain too for going on 4months now. I first suspected appendicitis, went to the ER and blood tests were normal.
Went to my regular Dr 3 days later..........I've had a colonoscopy (CLEAN), sonogram (CLEAN) and CTscan w/contrast......all my organs are fine, the appendix showed up healthy and normal.
Ive been diagnosed with IBS. I did the Colonoscopy, just as a precaution....for polyps, divict, and IBD.
Diverticular Disease is a digestive disorder, but it can be asymptomatic or just cause pain without any noticable changes in your bowel movements. Worth reading about in any case: http://www.healthsystem.virginia.edu/uvahealth/adult_digest/divertic.cfm
