Hello, and thank you very much for reading this at an ungodly hour. I've been having dull and sometimes sharp pains in my navel-abdomename region for the past two weeks and it's been on and off. Last Friday a doctor checked for rebound tenderness and did a UA and pronounced me to be healthy, no swelling or fever or anything really out of the ordinary. But the pain is still there, and my period has started; normally my cramps are ungodly painful, but I haven't had any at all since it's started; only the pain, and it really isn't all that painful. Could it really be appendicitis?
