When I had it I was nauseous for a day, with a stomach ache which got worse and moved down and to the right after about 6 hours - ended up on the right of my abdomen. I had an operation to remove my appendix the next day under general anaesthetic, which took less than an hour I think. Afterwards I was in a lot of pain, but the painkillers soon began to work and I felt better. I spent 3 days in hospital. I started eating 1 day after the operation. I went back to school about 2 weeks later, and I wasn't allowed to do sports for 6 weeks. My scar is now 1 and a half inches long, I guess it has grown with me though, I was only 7, now I'm 19! That's all I can remember...

I had apendicitis. I had a very sharp pain in the right of my abdomen, it hurts when pressed but hurts more when its released, except with me that didnt happen. Surgery is usually cutting a small insicion in your abdomen, (my scar is about 5cm long) and all they do is cut out your apendix and stitch you back up. Stitches either disolve of their own accord or are taken out a week after and then you can go back to work/school.

Hurts for a long while tho.

You think youve got it or want to fake it? lol

Take care xx
