Hi

Thanks for posting your query

First a word of reassurance, any intestinal problem only increases if the stress level is high

You have to relax and get yourself treated

I have a feeling you are suffering from ulcer dyspepsia and IBS can coexist

If the appendix is acute get it removed and if you are concerned about gall stones go for laparoscopic surgery where both appendix and gall bladder can be removed in one sitting

For IBS control your stress
Take a probiotic for 2 weeks
Exercise regularly

Hope this helps
