I am a 44 year old woman who has suffered repeatedley from what i was told to be appendicitis attacks.
Although most everytime was unbearable for pain, it didnt get to the point where the doctor was willing to
remove them. Am i able to request that a doctor remove the appendix anyway, so i wont have to continue
to suffer?

Hi! Is it the same doctor every time?!!! This is amazing that they have not removed it for you - on the other hand there can be a LOT of problems with infection after removing it! BUT better that then having it burst on you!
If I were you I would demand to see another doctor and the next time you have an attack - which I hope you don't - THEN insist on having it removed! I have never heard of any doctor removing an appendix when nothing is happening! Because like I stated, it CAN lead to a major infection! That is why MANY people whom have their appendix removed, are put on Antibiotics! Also have your doctor talk to a surgeon before hand and perhaps set up an appointment for you, so he/she can give you the once over and you then can talk about your options! You never know, they might just be willing to do this, instead of having it get to that point?
I wish you good health and luck!

Hi there, I think that you should have probably had your appendix moved by now. Normally they don't mess around with it as it could possibly culminate in a serious problem. Let me know if you see a doctor who's not yours, okay/ Bambi is totally dead on here!
