I have been getting pain over my appendix/bowel area scince January and now im starting to get worried.

The pain can last for weeks at a time, duting which it is constant and sharp. When it does go its only for a few days at the most. Ive seen my GP who said they were chasing up my peadi/GI.... but my next appointment isnt until July (we got the letter yesterday). I have a 10 mile sponsered walk coming up next week, so pain management help would also be helpful because at the moment exersise is agony. :(

Additional Details

im a 15 year old female

I have hypercalcemia

I used to have (and may still have) anemia.

I was asymptomatic for coeliac and was diagnosed on bloods (the biopsy was clear)

Any suggestions on what this could be are gratefully accepted.

Im sorry. But why on earth would you want to "mask this pain" so you can go on that walk? You will just further injure your body. Pain is your body's way of telling you to "slow down", "rest", "take it easy". Pushing yourself physically beyond what your body allows might give you a mental high, but it is destroying the vessel that carries your brain around......

i dont want to mask the pain.. i just need help to deal with it so i can get back to being the active person i once was.. ive had 3 years of sitting out in gym class and its getting a little frustrating, the walk is important to me because its to help cancer research UK and the childrens hosptal of Wales. Also its a vital part of the duke of ednibrugh award which i am taking part in.. i know i seem stupid for putting my body through this but im tired of letting pain stop me from joining in with my freinds ... sorry if that sounds stuborn or irrational but ive been brought up to not let illness keep me from living. Apart from the walk the pain is starting to effect my sleep so i cant concentrate in school.

And it has nothing to do with 'a mental high'

Hi, Your pain sounds like what I was going through until I stopped eating casine. Once I started gluten-free/cf diet the pain went away and my energy went up. Good luck!

Did you figure this out yet? I have seen this problem posted in several places on the net. For me it was my Ileo Cecum valve being stuck open. Oddly enough it can happen from too much ruffage or too little ruffage. Google the Ileo Cecum Valve and let me know if you think this might be the problem. Mine seems good for the last few weeks.

I've had pain to my right side for years off and on. When I went gluten free it was better until I started eating ground flax seeds in my baked goods. Then the pain returned. I got flax seed out of my diet as well as gluten and have had no pain since.

Some likely culprits: an oavarin cyst / food intolerances / colon disease --- /

some of those symptoms do sound like me.. i actually have a really bad cld at the moment and i was accused of "having an attitude" yesterday. Thanks for the suggestion

      Curious question

      So I've been dealing with chasing the name celiac because of my body actively dealing with health issues related to celiac though not eating. Diagnosed in 1994 before foods eliminated from diet. After 25 years with former pcp I googled celiac specialist and she wasn't because of what ive been through. I wanted my results to be sent to my pcp but nothing was...

      Celiac Disease and Longevity: Can Treatment and Healing Improve Long-Term Survival?

      Thanks for the prompt reply. Interesting that blood test could be caused by other things. I am sure Dr Fincher will get to the bottom of it. I know he ate nowhere near that amt of gluten before the endoscope. Always interested in any new info abt celiac. U can not trust what is said on fb- That would be a piece of bread a day. He didn't even make that...

      So I've been dealing with chasing the name celiac because of my body actively dealing with health issues related to celiac though not eating. Diagnosed in 1994 before foods eliminated from diet. After 25 years with former pcp I googled celiac specialist and she wasn't because of what ive been through. I wanted my results to be sent to my pcp but nothing was sent.I have email copies.I did one zoom call with np with team member from celiac specialist in Nov 2025 and she asked me why I wanted to know why I wanted the celiac diagnosis so bad, I sad I don't, its my life and I need revalidaion because its affecting me.KB stated well it shows you are.I asked then why am I going through all this.I was labeled unruly. Its been a celiac circus and medical has caused anxiety and depression no fault to my own other than being born with bad genetics. How is it legal for medical professionals to gaslight patients that are with an ailment coming for help to be downplayed? KB put in my records that she personally spent 120min with me and I think the zoom call was discussing celiac 80 min ONE ZOOM call.SHE is responsible for not explaining to my pcp about celiac disease am I right?

Its alarming these places are popping up in airports as well.I just saw on the news that the airport ( can't remember which  one)was going to have a fabulous smelling bakery. Not for sensitive celiacs, this can alter their health during their travel which isn't safe. More awareness really NEEDS to be promoted, so much more than just a food consumption!FYI I did write to Stanislaus to let them know my thoughts on the medical field not knowing much about celiac and how it affects one.I also did message my gi the 3 specialist names that was given on previous post on questions on celiac. I pray its not on deaf door.
