Spent a lot of the day in the hospital undergoing various tests. I should not be surprised to learn that I actually do have something called "diverticulitis" which directly affects one's colon. In a lot of cases this means a section of one's lower colon should be surgically removed.
Mine is NOT that case thankfully.. It creates very painful lower colon pain. And in my case is not related to normal everyday foods I may eat..
So I now have a couple more daily meds to take in addition to my heart medicines.
I hate getting older...
