Appendicitis?

Question:

My primary care doc called me and left a message on my voice mail about a CT scan I had done last week. They were checking for Kidney Stones and after doing a 2nd look, they found "Rock hard stool" in my appendix. For some reason my voice mail cut off the message and I can't reach him. My stomach starting hurting mildly again about 2 hours ago. It started around my belly button and is now in the right lower quadrant. It's been getting a little worse, but not too bad right now. I have done some research, but haven't found a very good answer. Does the 'rock hard' chunk of stool in my appendix mean I have appendicitis now? I REALLY wish I got the entire message from the Dr. or could reach him. I hope someone out there is familiar with this. *** And to the people that try to freak people out by saying, 'You're going to die, get to the ER now', I don't scare easy and only listen to people that make the effort to help someone. Thanks everyone!

hello... well.. it depends how bad the pain is.... some people can with stand the pain but you should let your pride get the best of you....if you really are suffering from.. abdominal pain.... and you think you have appendicitis... then you should go the ER. and get it taken care of.... if you don't your appendix can rupture and then you will be dealing with a much higher risk

I really think you should go and see your primary doctor so that he can diagnose you, good luck
