Hi @akeyfes, welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. How disheartening to know that something was found on your imaging, but not addressed.
I know that members like @jbell22 and @ggopher who not only posted here, but also in another discussion regarding kommerell diverticulum.

Have you been asymptomatic or have you had any swallowing or breathing issues?

Asymptomatic. In fact as of last week I was doing an hour of hardcore cycling and heavy weightlifting 6 days a week. I am just in horror that I may have been literally risking my life with each rep. It is beyond frustrating that is wasn't addressed when it came up and I was young (in my 20s).
