Hi, @karyn23 - I moved your post here to a discussion you were participating in before, "Diverticulitis and constipation." I did this so members you'd been chatting with before will see your greetings and thanks.

Glad you are listening and learning from other Connect members.

Are you still having the sharp left-sided pain in your lower abdomen, low-grade fever, other pains and heaviness with your episodes, karyn23? What helps you cope with these episodes?

Hi, Lisa,

Thanks for moving the post. I don't know if I can answer your question about episodes, because I'm not sure if I've had anything like the one that landed me in the hospital in Dec 2023. That seemed to clearly have an infectious component - I had fevers - but since then, no fevers, just occasional low-level aches and pains. Not sure if this is sub-clinical, very mild diverticulitis or the new normal for my gut. Still learning. No answers.
