Default Appendicitis?? I hope I'm just paranoid!!

Today at work my stomach (actually abdomen) was hurting, it almost felt like cramps like you'd get during that time of the month... over the past several hours, the pain has become more localized to the lower right side of my abdomen. Me being the hypochondriac that I am looked up my symptoms and it seems that the appendix is located in that general area! Although I'm not having the stabbing pains that I've heard everyone else gets with appendicitis. Is this an early warning sign or something not to worry about? To make matters worse, we're having this lovely ice storm right now, so I don't know if my doctor's office is going to be open tomorrow.

Thanks for your help!
