Why wait? Go to ER!: Appendicitis starts with diffuse abdominal pain, loss of appetite - maybe nausea. Then it becomes very localized between hip bone & belly button & very intense. If it ruptures - this is very dangerous - it again becomes more diffuse and wide spread. Get to an er if you are anywhere in this. Don't wait for rupture!
