Should I go to the emergency room?

[Anonymous]

On Tuesday night I started having an intense, dull crampy ache in my stomach, which came and went all night. Around 6am I was very nauseated and went to the toilet prepared to vomit but it didn't happen.

Until around noon that next day (Wednesday) I had that pain, it hurt to put pressure on my stomach too. It felt oddly full. I was nauseated but felt fine after around 12pm. I slept okay that night.

The next day (Thursday) I woke up nauseous and with the ache. It passed. I had a diminished appetite. I ate bland foods. 30 min after eating I get that gnawing crampy ache and feel nauseous and awful. it Comes and goes. It kept me up for some of the night. Friday was basically the same as was Saturday and today.

I've yet to vomit although I feel I might. My stool has been normal until just now it was a little soft and foul smelling. I have no fever. I am not pregnant.

I'm not a doctor but when I had appendicitis I had much the same symptoms... or it could be nothing... doctors can find out you should go

The sign I needed to go was on the third night I got a really high fever and chills

It isn't sharp localized pain and there is no vomiting so I don't think it could be appendicitis

Localized pain isn't always present... I didn't have it, it was a continuous dull pain in my abdomen, the localized pain typically presents in cases close to rupture

A google result confirms what you're saying. Its been 5 days so far and no fever and chills yet so I am hoping it isn't appendicitis

Well I'm glad google agrees! I hope it's not appendicitis as well, wasn't fun.. if it is though real quick surgery a few days recovery and you are good... I was back to normal in 3 days and in the gym in 2 weeks... just have to be careful at risking a hernia

Doesn't sound like an emergency but this should be a question for your doctor if you feel concerned. Try googling your symptoms and see what pops up. If your pain becomes unbearable then yes go to the ER. Hope you feel better.

Seems like an ulcer
