Doesn't sound good: Unfortunately without more information about the pain itself, other associated symptoms(like diarrhea) and being able to examine you and review your labs/imaging, it's very difficult to guide you well. Could this be appendicitis ... its possible ... but it could be many other pathologies involving the small intestine, large intestine, kidneys, ovaries and others too.
