Have you had that checked out (scoped)? Last August I had, yet again, what I thought was just a reoccurring ulcer attack. So bad I decided to go to the doctor ... Yep diverticulitis!

It was so bad they couldn't get a scope past it (they thought it was colon cancer) rushed me to the hospital and the next morning I was in an operating room opened up from above my belly button to my groin!

Not a trace of cancer but they removed scar tissue as big as my fist. I am just now recovering to the point I can do work around the yard. Still no heavy lifting.

Thanks for the concern. I’ve been in touch with the GI guy, and am on antibiotics with an upcoming appt.
