[status]Anchored at Fulunga. Had a pretty quiet day yesterday. Trevor had had no sleep as had experienced very strong pain just above the hip and slightly back towards the spine. Spoke to our friend a paramedic, Ron on the radio getting his opinion, he thought appendicitis and lucky we have a doctor on board another yacht in here and she came over and was with us all morning and she thinks he has a kidney tone. She is quite sure it is not the appendix. Trevor had experienced the same thing 3 days ago but it only lasted about 2 hours and again he experienced it 2 1/2 years ago on our way from Galapagos to Marquesas. The pain has gone and Trevor had a good nights sleep. Ate a small dinner last evening. A bit of a concern. We went for a slow stroll into the village as we thought some exercise may be good and that is about all we did yesterday. Had the doctor over again last thing just to check up. All seems OK at the moment.
