A member asked:

Is it possible to have appendicitis, without the righ side feeling hard?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes, appendicitis: Is a "protean" disease, meaning that it can manifest with many different symptoms. Sometimes it is difficult for doctors to tell without a ct scan. You really need to see a doctor for exam and tests if you suspect appendicitis.
