I had a ruptured appendix years ago- they can usually detect appendicitis with a blood test showing high white blood cell counts...

His had not yet ruptured. You really want to deal with them before that.

My 90 year old grandmother had appendicitis misdiagnosed as stomach cancer. Her appendix ruptured. She was a tough Polish lady, so she pulled through and lived until 97, but was never the same. The doctors never thought to check for that in a 90 year old.

that’s AFTER it’s ruptured! Most don’t survive that, depending on what the toxic burden that got released in your body after the rupture was.
