Ok....it's kinda weird....
Yesterday morning i started getting stabbing pains in my right side. Everytime it hit me i was doubled over (and before you ask im not on my period) and couldnt move. So my mum took me to the docs....she had a feel around but it didnt hurt. She said it was either the beginning of appenticitus, a water infection or something to do with my periods. She gave my mum a choice, to take me to the hospital to be oberved or to prescribe painkillers and keep an eye on me. The pains stopped for the rest of that day, but came back again today. Only theyre not stabbing pains but just constant pain. And sometimes it spreads across my stomache aswell. And because ive been ill alot recently my parents dont really believe me. I'm going back to the doctors tomorrow but my friends say to go to the hospital. Any ideas of what it could be?

As the doctor has already made some suggestions of what it could be, it sounds like you have a pretty good idea. I had something similar years ago - they first said it was period pains, then appendicitis but it ended up being a urinary tract infection - not nice at all.
If you can't cope with the pain until your next appointment, call NHS Direct. They can ask you questions to determine how serious it is and whether you should go to hospital. Hopefully it won't come to that and your GP will be able to help.
Hope you're better soon

could be something simple but is best to make sure if the pain is still there!
NHS direct are a good starting point they know who to send you to just from talking to them on the phone.
Hope u get better soon
and bear in mind that if you don't feel well tomorrow, you don't have to go to school.
its kind of complicated....but my dad thinks it all my anxiety problems i had with school.....so if i dont go he gets mad, and my mums scared of him so she sends me
but it just pisses the school off cause they nearly always have to send me home, ive been off for 2 days and my mum yelled at me this morning for saying it was still hurting - she thinks im making out its worse than it is to get time off aswell
but to be honest, it's none of the nurse or receptionist's business whether you are faking or not. they're there to provide a service, not judge you.
When i was 14 i had pains in my side so bad i went to hospital and was later described as having a condition called abdominal migrane - this now i find is due to being stressed and worried about things.
When i get it i just try to relax and take deep breaths and concentrate on something
I hope this helps
