What did she die from, a burst appendix? A friend went to an ER twice with this girl’s symptoms and was told the same things. Next time it was peritonitus infection from burst appendix.. Had a lot of trouble surviving even in emergency care.

Something to do with Sepsis. Sounds like she was in complete agony.

Possibly the same thing your friend had. Untreated burst appendix leads to peritonitis, followed by septicemia and death.

Had a like experience. Back in ‘82 a girlfriend went to the doc with severe pain. He told her she’d be fine. A day later I said to hell with it and drove her to Miamonedes in Brooklyn. Her appendix was so far gone that they wheeled her in the OR right then and there. They had wanted to transfer her to Coney Island but the head surgeon nixed that. Ya gotta think for yourself in this life. If I had decided the docs know best she’d be dead at 23, instead of the wife mother, grandmother and businesswomen she is today.
