When she has a "flare up", she is incapacitated for days, it takes some seriously strong antibiotics to clear it up. After her last attack, they told her the next step was to have that section of her colon removed..
The first time I had a bout of diverticulitis I thought I had a bowel blockage and needed surgery. I sat on the toilet for an hour with the worst pains trying to take a dump but nothing would come out. It hurt so bad I threw up in the parking lot of the emergency room.
I have only had it one time since then, but I knew what it was as soon as it started and went to the doctor before it got so bad.
