FOLFOX is given directly into the bloodstream through an intravenous line. It can be given through a thin, short tube (a cannula) put into a vein in the arm each time one has a treatment. It may also be given through a central line, a portacath, or a PICC line.
Left untreated, an inflamed appendix can burst. The infection can then spread throughout the abdominal cavity and into the bloodstream. The appendix hangs from the lower right side of the large intestine. If your husbandâs pain is predominantly on his left side, itâs probably not appendicitis.
No one can tell when exactly the appendix will burst. It first has to be inflamed. This will usually cause pain, possibly nausea/vomiting, and fever. The pain will be located on the right side of your body, above your pubic bone and below your belly button. If you are having these symptoms, you should absolutely go to the hospital. They will run tests to make sure that you have appendicitis.
