Over a month ago I had a ruptured appendix which then caused an enormous abcess. I had to be in the hospital for five days to have it drained. I was on antibiotics for almost three weeks. Once the abcess was gone it looked as if only the top of my appendix ruptured, but it healed itself. Surgeon recommended I not get the surgery. Now over a month later I have sharp pains in the abdomen especially on the right. I also have pains up my back. Ido have a fever that began last night. Thoughts? Advice? Is it the appendix? Also? I had a baby almost three months ago....could it be something female related?
