The pain of appenicitis (infection of appendix) is present on right side of abdomen. Therefore, not likely that you have appendicitis.
To make a confirmed diagnosis, I would require more information whether there is any burning sensation while passing urine or if the pain peaking and declining alternatively.
But you don't seeem to have appendix infection.
