My wife has severe abdominal pain 2" below and 2" to the right side of the navel (appendix area, but hers was removed). The pain is deep inside the abdomen. This pain has been present for a few months now. She went to the hospital last week for a check, but all that was carried out was external examination of the abdomen. Urine tests at the doctor have all been clear and a blood test for cancer has been clear so far, though a new sample has been taken for rechecking. After the check at the hospital, the pain has become more severe, probably due to the irritation of the abdomen.

Bladder control can be weak at times, and when passing stools the abdomen is very sore. She feels that her stomach is bloated, but I don't really notice that, but the right side is slightly larger than the left. She has to go back to the hospital for a scan, but this could take several weeks. Any ideas?
