Diverticulitus and diverticulosis
Diverticulitus and
diverticulosis
. Just been diagnosed following colonoscopy and CT Scan and am very confused and anxious about it. I am 85 years old and gather it is very common in elderly people but is incurable. Anybody help.

Diverticulosis, ER Trip, Phone call with Rheumy
CT scan showed
as pockets are not infected. No kidneys stones. Everything else is good (which is good), including the bladder. They are sending my urine for cultures as white platelets were elevated. Next day, had terrible diarrhea and abdominal pain.

Cause of excessive flatulence
Recently my husband was in hospital after a bout of
diverticulosis
’ and suffered bloating which I think the Dr suggested was outside the bowel. It set me wondering if my severe bouts of flatulence might not be coming from within the bowel.

Today, another CT Scan to Rule Out Blood Clot on Lung
Also the
diverticulosis
could be infected. Hope they get to the bottom of this today.

My friend had his PETscan.
There is colonic
diverticulosis
without CT evidence of active diverticulitis.

IBS and swelling abdomen
Result was
diverticulosis
and IBS My concern is my abdomen seems to swell up as the day goes on with pain. Seems the swelling goes down a little after I wake up in the morning. Doctor has not given me a solution to what this is. I've had many scans and tests. Does anyone else have this problem?

Persistent bowel infection
I had a colonic MRI scan done which found I had
diverticulosis
(side-pockets on the colon). I did not have all the symptoms of diverticulitis (inflammation of the pockets) causing fever etc. so they were unwilling to treat me for this.

IBS or Not IBS that is the question!
Diagnosis given as
Diverticulosis
(bulging pockets along the bowel) described to me by a nurse as being like an old bike tyre that had bulges due to wear and tear (that made me laugh) Thankfully no cancer the relief for me and my family is huge beyond words.

Advice on a lower GI investigation with a swallowed camera as a hospital in-patient.
My Colonoscopy showed
diverticulosis
and polyps which were removed. The pain etc has continued. I have been phoned by our local hospital to come in to hospital to prepare for the procedure that involves swallowing a capsule sized camera that takes pictures recorded on a belt thing I wear.

Diverticulosis
I just was diagnosed with
Diverticulosis
which is very painful. Have to do a special diet, but I really would like to know if it's curable or is this a forever illness? Hoping for answers. Thanks you

ER Doc further messed up my back?
After urine, blood and CT-scan of abdomen and back, it turns out it's
diverticulosis
which second doc on Friday says "doesn't usually cause pain". Since that day (and I returned to ER on Friday as they said if pain got worse to do so), my back is excrutiatingly bad.

Pirtobrutinib triple trial Cycle 7 update
Gastrointestinal Tract: Diffuse mural thickening of the sigmoid colon may be from muscular hypertrophy related to colonic
diverticulosis
and underdistention or inflammatory, and this may be correlated clinically and followed. No intestinal obstruction.

some advice needed
Nothing found but I do have
diverticulosis
. I know this is the minor one. Had no problems until now. Severe stomach ache and diarrhoea of sorts. More very loose than watery. Sorry for the info. The last week I have had difficulty passing a solid stool. My stomach feels tender.

Stomach problems

diverticulosis
have anything to do with my very uncomfortable state??

yeast infection or???
I have been battling a yeast infection (or so I think)or yet a fungal infection for nearly a year now.Extreme itching and antibiotics have done nothing.Now I’m battling possible diverticulosis.My question is could this fungal infection be infecting my large intestines causing
diverticulosis
?

Is this a UTI
Now it has started again, do have IBS/
diverticulosis
. Wondering if anyone has had something like this due to anxiety. Seems so minor but these things seem to take over my life, just thinking about it constantly.

Feeling ‘crap’
They did say I had a bit of
diverticulosis
also . Anyway just over 12 months on my insides are in bits. Lots of cramping, back pain, constipation & loose stools. When speaking to GP’s they just say keep taking the Laxido. Even when I say how poorly I feel.
