Pain In Right Side. Blood Test Normal. Taken Contraceptive Pill. Any Suggestions?
im a 16 year old girl and ive been in hospital 3 times with a 'mystery pain' and the surgical team and the guine team have no idea as to what is causing the pain. i get the pain regularly and it gets really bad around every 7 months and that is when ive been in hospital . the pain is situated on my right side pretty low down and the surgical team were concerned about my appendix but it has not been confirmed that that is the problem. ive had a scan on my overys and an ovarian sist has been ruled out so there pretty sure its nothing guinelogical (excuse spelling mistakes). my blood test were always normal except the last time my white blood cell count was 15 which is a sign of infection hinting towards inpendicites again the surgical team had decided not to take my appendix out. my bloods were taking twice the last time i was in and when i was starting to feel better my white blood cell count was back to normal although another blood component was up and i cant think of the name of it but it wasnt a major concern . i was put on a contraceptive pill after the second time i was in hospital to stop me ovulating to see if that was causing the pain but it obviously wasnt if it happened again so i have now been taking pff the pill cause there is no need for me to be on it. do you have any suggestions as to what is causing my pain or any suggestions would help

Hi thanks for using HCM. I appreciate your explaination.
Your history suggests some infection giving rise to pain. It may be appendicites or some pelvic diseases.
As advised from your Gynae, take contraceptive pills for couple of months and look for any changes. The OCP regularise your cycle, prevents Pelvic inflammatory disease, and also cures some diseases with vague symptoms of the unknown cause. After stopping this your regular cycle will occur and no other problems if you adhere to your doctor's advice.
Get one colonoscopy done to rule out any intestinal disease and take plenty of fluids with regular exercises. Hope i answered your question and clarified your query. Wish you good health. Take care.
