General Medical Question - Non Urgent - appetite dissapearing?

About a week ago my fat cat (she's 17 pounds)jumped on my lower side. I went to the doctor the next day cuz i was in a lot of pain. Ever sense she jumped on me I have had barley any appetite. I can eat like only one meal a day and usually not all of it. The dr said that there was nothing wrong..... Should I be concerned or I am just being dumb?

Did you start new meds around that time (within a couple of days before)? Had any other symptoms?

So does the pain feel sharp if you push down to the right of your belly button or just below this? That's one of the main sign of appendicitis. Though, this does not mean you definastely have it.

To be honest, whatever it is it is probably just a coincidence about your cat jumping up. If something was grumbling away in the background then she may have just pushed on the right bit to cause it to worsen slightly in the short-term but though she is a very big cat she wouldn't be big enough to cause you damage especially as how she would have landed on you. Feeling sick may be because of the pain as severe pain can cause sickness and lightheadedness or it may be because of other symptoms.

If the pain/nausea gets worse then see a doctor, same if you start to feel ill. If the pain gets severe/excruciating it may be a good idea to go to the ER.
