I'm said to be a miracle. I had my appendix out a couple of years ago now. I was feeling severe pain for weeks, on and off, until ut got to the point where the pain was so severe that I'd drop to my knees and continue to further more roll around squirming, all while convincing myself I must be celiac. So I put up with this for a while, like a few months until it got to the point where I explained above and I dragged myself to the doctors, I explained my pains and took a piss test. Turns out I had a bladder infection so I was sent home with anti-biotics and a week later I had no more pain. A few days later I got a call from the doctor who had gotten back the ultra-sound results and she urgently directed me to go to emergency, so goes on to explain that the ultra-sounds results showed that my appendix had burst and just just said get straight to hospital. I got there and they put me straight in, and doctors and nurses kept coming in and out and I got a bunch of tests and needles and put on a drip and sent home 7 or so hours later considering my appendix had already burst and I was in no more pain they let me go after a long talk between themselves... So then I was booked in for a few months later to get it taken out to try and let it heal and make the surgery less complicated, but it worked the opposite way - it was meant to be over night surgery but turned into 9 or so days because it had healed but it had stuck to other organs which it had to be cut away from etc.
Pretty terrible few weeks/months, but being in hospital for even that amount of time can be life-changing, I found.

All's good now though.
