Nah... Keep posting on the Aces High forum. A doctor will tell you exactly what's going on and what to do, very shortly. Mark my word.
You probably do not have a laparoscope, so I would choose the open appendectomy. Make a two- to three-inch incision in the lower right abdomen, separate the abdominal muscles and open the abdominal cavity. Pull the appendix through the incision, tie it off at its base, and remove it. Care should taken to avoid spilling purulent material (pus) from the appendix while it is being removed. If the appendix has ruptured, thoroughly wash out the abdomen with saline.Then suture the incision.
Course then I am a mechanical engineer, not a doctor.
