HELP! Does it sound like i have DIVERTICULOSIS?
I posted this on diverticulisis forum too, but it seems to be inactive, so I am trying here too...
In the past 2 months, I had strange symptoms, they appeared within couple days.
First time, there was pain in the lower abdomen/ovaries region. It hurt all day, and by the night, the whole abdomen was hurting, hard to pass gas. For couple days, it was very raw, I had low grade fever for a day, felt miserable.
Pain finally got localized to the lower abdomen, mostly right side. But if I touched the right side, I could feel pain travel to the left, and vice versa.
I wend to liquid diet, took lots of natural
Antibiotics ..in a week, I felt better.
A month later, similar story, slightly different pain location.
I noticed low energy, pain the the lower back whole day...then after an intimate time with my spouse, suddenly I started having burning pain inside of my intestines. It was pretty bad, without letting up. Pain seemed to resonate througout intestines. I felt bloated too. I had a low grade fever for a while.
I thought I had to go to emergency.
First I wondered if I disturbed some
parasites in my intestines....because I ate half of large PAPAYA that day.....
I finally had a BM, and felt a bit better.
Next morning, I still felt bad. Everytime I moved, pain resonated throughout my intesnines, especially the sides/lower part. They felt raw. Bad low back pain (mostly to the center). I thought, not again...
I went on liquid diet again, that evening I zapped with a zapper. Pretty soon, I felt better. Next morning I felt better, zapped again...Now I am 5 days into this, it's getting much better, although there is still some tenderness and occasional cramps when gas travels through intestines.....
Does it sound like diverticulitis?
Ocassionally, I see roundish/slightly cone shaped parts in my stool. I was wondering if that indicates anything?..
ALso, when I have BM, right before the exit, when it moves down my large intestine on the left side of my body, I can feel there is a spot that gets pressed against. Like it's pertruding and when BM moves by, i can feel some sensation of pressure....
how would doctor know? What kind of doctor to see?
