Appendicitis Nightmare

Appendicitis Nightmare,
My story is complicated. I had an appendectomy 25 days ago and have a lot of pain when I walk a short distance or drive in my car. I am going to attempt to go back to work tomorrow. I have had 12 CT scans done in the last three weeks. It took 8 CT scans to diagnose my Appendicitis. I had stool blocking my appendix. I went to the hospital and was sent home with the ER doctor not believing it was anything serious. A week later, I was in more pain and my Primary Doctor sent me right to a surgeon after reviewing my CT scan. I had bleeding from two of my incisions around day 15 after surgery. I was given antibiotic. If this normal to be in a lot of pain still?
