My wife Female 57 years old. no hysterectomy, has sharp pains in her abdomen, on her upper left side.  She has had three children and has a  very high threshold of pain.  It worries me because she never complains about pain. Should she seek immediate medical attention for  possible appendicitis?
Hi. Pain in left upper side of abdomen can not be due to appendicitis. As you rightly say - the severe pain in a patient who has high tolerance should be seen by a Doctor, and may need ultrasonography and so. The pain probably can be from the colon, pancreas tail, kidney or so.
