No, I'm pretty sure it's gas...maybe I exaggerated the cramping a bit, I'm sorry. It's not always that way, sometimes it feels like a large air bubble and I can always feel it moving around when I put my hand there. Sometimes it's higher up, under my right rib, and I mistype, my gastritis pain's in the left shoulder, not the right, I only just caught that. I've had lots of tests, not sure what one if any would show appendicitis...I just know I push on that area a lot, and it doesn't hurt any more or less when I do.
