Welcome @kimmyi, I imagine that can be pretty unnerving being told you have an elongated tortuous colon when you also have diverticulosis. There is another older similar discussion that you may want to look through.
-- Anyone else have a Redundant / Tortuous Colon?: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/redundant-tortured-colon/.

There are also quite a few discussions and comments on stomach and bloating that you might find helpful to scan through. Here is a link that lists the discussions and comments - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/search/discussions/?search=stomach%20bloating

Do you have a follow up appointment with your doctor to discuss the bloating symptoms?

I started with diverticulosis and now have divirticulitis. I’ve had to go to the emergency room it colitis. I’m so compassionate for people who are sick I’ve been through so much in my life 11 surgeries later for different things
