I have heard and read that it is severe pain. I think I have cysts that break sometimes and I have the symptoms except for severe pain. I mean sometimes I can't hardly walk or I take aleve, but that's just kind of a normal cycle for me. I have had the other symptoms like vomiting or fever, pressure, stabbing pain, and things like that. Is that all it is or should I get something else checked? I don't have an appendix and this isn't as severe as that was.
