Is this Oregano?

Is this Oregano?

This plant is springing back up and it looks like Oregano, but it has no smell and didn't last year either when I've broken off and crumpled the leaves. Once it's bigger I might try drying some to see if I can smell it at all after that.

I'm less than 24 hrs out from removing my appendix so bare with me.

I've had 3 chocolate cysts burst, and now appendicitis (caught in time before my appendix burst).

My cysts symptoms all usually had symptoms come on really fast, all in the same day, vs appendicitis took more time; Wednesday I was uncomfortablly bloated, thought it was trapped gas, Thursday afternoon I started having more generalized pain, and then Thursday night I kept waking up from a stabbing pain whenever I'd move in my sleep and the pain moved to be the most tender on my right side.

As it progressed, the symptoms felt very similar when comparing pre-cyst burst vs day 2/3 appendicitis.

Minus the surgery itself, I'd say period pain is worse. I even debated whether I should still work (from home), but because the pain moved to the right I drove myself to the ER and told my husband he didnt need to come since I wasnt expecting that they'd find anything.

My appendicitis pain came and went, and the triage nurse was surprised when I said it was a 3 when they checked my vitals which had spiked already to say my body disagreed I guess. (When appendicitis was shooting pain then it was more like an 8 but in short bursts).

The healthcare team I had was amazing, I didn't have to correct any endo misinformation, the young male nurse made a comment on how poor women's healthcare is. Even though I didn't think the pain was a big deal and just went as a precaution, they took it seriously and ran all the right tests.
