General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history and understood your concerns.
Since appendix, gall bladder, uterus and ovaries have been surgically removed years ago, these can not be the reasons for the pain in right side of abdomen and nausea.
The most probable causes can be:
Appendicitis as you have said.
Stone in the right ureter can mimic the same symptoms.
I would advise you the following in such a situation:
Get a CT scan of the abdomen as it helps the best fr diagnosis of typhlitis, appendicitis and stone in the ureter.
Tests of stool, blood and urine help further to get an appropriate diagnosis and a plan of management.
I find this answer helpful
