Answers:
When I had appendicitis I thought I had food poisioning and the pain was horrible and I layed doubled over with a bucket by the couch. This went on for about four hours until I went to the ER. The doctors took my blood and my white cells were highly elevated so I had emergency surgery and while on the table my appendix ruptured just as they opened me up, so I was lucky I went when I did.

The classic symptoms of appendicitis include:

Dull pain near the navel or the upper abdomen that becomes sharp as it moves to the lower right abdomen, Vomiting that precedes the abdominal pain, pain in the back, or rectum, Painful urination,
Severe cramps, Constipation or diarrhea with gas Loss of appetite Nausea and/or vomiting soon after abdominal pain begins, Abdominal swelling, Fever of 99
