A member asked:
Hi. i've taken a trip to a&e and was told i had a grumbling appendicitis. now, my bellys swollen near that area. are they ready to be removed?

YES before rupture! : Sometimes it can be treated medically with antibiotics. The danger in waiting is that it may rupture and cause you to have peritonitis and septic shock and end up in deep deep doo doo. Speak to your doc immediately about your situation!
