I get terrible lower abdomen pain and then vomit.

It is in the middle. 

So what is the next step. Did doc say anything. Or did he give you that diagnosis. He just examined you and said that. Did he run tests on you.

Thank you for replying.. my position at the moment is that I was offered a vacant hospital for proplapse  bowel last Tuesday. And told them if was having very tender right side abdomen discomfort..he said that’s ok, we will give you a check. Op cancelled two days later..no beds

so I went to my local,dr..a new one.. who said it’s diverticulitis and gave me Flagyl and Cripfo, told me to,just,have broth for 2 or 3day ..then light meals...which I have done

I ha emtoday completed the 7 day course, still feeling very tender..but no worse..my op now should be 19 Nov..

Tomorrow I,will start probiotics, but still continue with light meals fish and chicken or turkey and only a little with some veg.

I tried to phone dr for phone appointment, two days couldn’t get through over an hoir..

I,would,think if,it’s a rumbling appendix I would feel unwell and I feel fine

My lovely Grandaughter made me some very spicy soup a couple,of weeks ago, or I could have lifted something heavy.

I am 82 and my late hubby had a burst appendix many  years ago and that was horrendous..

MAybe I should have more antibiotics but I don’t really want to as they havenot,helped much

Thanks for replying
