Lower right abdominal pain
I started having a pretty dull pain in my lower right abdomen it stays for a few seconds and goes away and comes back after a bit. It’s very tolerable I’m just wondering what it is. I had a ultra sound at the gynecologist yesterday and they said everything looked normal. I do have acid reflux and I’ve been burping and a little gassy for the past few days which i'm not sure that has anything to do with it I just want to mention everything just in case. I don’t think it’s appendicitis since I don't have any other symptoms like vomiting, nausea, poor appetite, etc. I tried pressing down on the area as well I don’t really notice any rebound pain.

@barkbarkbark1 - did you ever find out what this was? I’m having the same symptoms. Wondering if it could be chronic appendicitis. Going to see my GP next week.

IMMLAMATION IN COLON /BOWELS COULD BE AN ISSUE
..............please update all after FIT test
@peterose - I believe you are talking about the fecal immunochemistry test (FIT)?
If so, @jbabble, I'd like to welcome you to Mayo Clinic Connect and also provide some information on on the FIT from Mayo Clinic. If you scroll down a bit to where this article describes pros and cons of different colon cancer screening tests, it describes the FIT:
- Colon cancer screening: Weighing the options https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/colon-cancer/in-depth/colon-cancer-screening/art-20046825
I personally had potential appendicitis that baffled my doctors when I was in 7th grade. I had nausea and vomiting and bad tummy pain. However, I was not doubled over in gut pain like most appendicitis patients, which was mystifying to the doctors. They did an internal physical exam and ultimately performed a barium enema on me to definitively determine if I had appendicitis. It turned out I did, so I had an appendectomy.
When will you be meeting with your doctor, jbabble? Did anything else happen with your symptoms over the weekend?
@vita831 - how are your symptoms? Are you still having pain?
@mimi86 - Did you get any answers?

1 Reaction@lisalucier i’ve been having pain on and off, and at this point, I think it’s most likely related to a muscle issue or disorder. I’ve already had a CT scan and an MRI, and neither showed anything that could explain the pain. I also had an appendectomy when I was about 10 years old so it’s possible that scar tissue from that surgery might be contributing as well.

1 ReactionTry doing a food log and see if food is related to your issue. Food is a big issue with me and my medical issues.

Hi @varsha2029 - welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. Will you share a bit more about your daughter's situation and what testing she has been through thus far? Is your daughter an adult or a child?
