Anyone here ever experience appendicitis? What kind of pain is it? Sharp? Throbbing? Is it constant pain or does it come in waves?

I had a doctor's appointment today and he was pressing on my abdomen just for a physical exam. I haven't been having any pain in my lower right abdomen, but when he pressed down on it it felt a little tender. I don't know if that means there is something wrong with my appendix. Just another HA worry acting up.

I had appendicitis. To me, it felt like I really needed to go to the bathroom, just a real pressure that wouldn't go away. Very tender to touch as well.
