Appendicitis or gastroenteritis?


Yesterday i had dull sharp pains in my stomach everywhere. Last night the pain was so sharp i couldnt sleep, i vomited twice last night. This morning when i woke up the pain was horrible, i tried to sit up and it felt like i pulled every muscle in my stomach. If i move the littlest bit it hurts, horribly. And i cant stand up straight? The pain is not only on the right side of my abdomen, its everywhere in my stomach. And if i push anywhere on my stomach it hurts so bad. I feel like i have a fever, but the thermometer says different. I have a pounding headache. I had a little bit of blood when i went pee, havent in over an hour though. Appendicitis, bladder infection, kidney infection, gallbladder? I have no idea, just wondering i anyone has had this problem before, and what it could possibly be?

some background info- i gave birth 2 months ago vaginally. I had a uti after that, not sure if it went all the way away ( i did take antibiotics)

By the pain you are describing, it is not appendicitis. You could have a bad stomach virus or a bladder infection, The Doctor needs to look you over for sure..

Advice until you can get to the hospital or Doctors office.....
Put a Hot water bottle on your belly and see if it helps at all and make sure you are drinking water to flush your system out.

Feel better sweetie and let us know =)

get to a doctor asap

Your UTI maybe back, or you could have a kidney infection or stone. If the blood was enough see it's a lot of blood. You need to see the doctor again. Finish all of the antibiotics if they give you some.

Go to the emergency room - blood in your pee is never a good sign. This sounds like more then just gas. Better to be safe then sorry

GO SEE A DOCTOR. please don't let average joe's take a guess at your diagnosis. That is a SERIOUS medical problem. Consistent pain and vomiting are reasons to go to and ER! GO GO GO!!!

Your stomach is above your belly button. Is that where your pain is? I always used to hold my lower part and say I had stomach trouble, and my doctor corrected me on this.I had appendicitis and could not stand up straight. The blood in the urine sounds like a bladder infection, though. I would go to a clinic that is open on the weekends and ask them for help asap! Good luck!
