For those that asked to let them know what is going on with my health problem, I couldn't stand to wait until March 3rd to see a specialist, so I went to my family doctor. I was and still am in a lot of pain. She was very concerned about my overall pain in my stomach and lower abdomen, so she sent me to get a Cat Scan . I had to take that barrium liquid...yuck...it was horrible. The results came back that I have Diverticulitis, a very painful infection of pockets inside your stomach. I am taking 2 kinds of antibiotics . Diverticulosis is the stomach condition ( which is pockets in the stomach) and Diverticulitis is the infection of the stomach pockets. It is said that over 50% of people over 60 years old has Divertculosis, but I started early! I am still going to the specialist to make sure all else is well. Thanks for asking about how I feel!
