Hi there I understand your concern... Appendicitis is inflammation of appendix which is a vestigial organ in humans I.e it has no significant functions hence surgeons will advice surgery as recurrence are more with medical therapy... I would suggest you to consult surgeon for clinical examination and get ultrasound abdomen to see present changes in appendix they will guide you further.
