Some of the other symptoms of appendicitis might be indigestion, diarrhea, or constipation. The pain appears to shift toward the lower right side. A variable fever in the range of 100°F or 101°F is also companied with this shift. The patient may feel nauseate and can vomit one or more times. A long term symptom of the appendicitis is the revenant pain in the right lower abdomen, constipation, loss of appetite and gentle nausea.
