Anyone else have a Redundant / Tortuous Colon?

I was diagnosed in 2010 with tortuous colon which was discovered during a routine colonoscopy. I have had very few problems until the beginning of 2019 when I began developing severe muscle spasms in my lower left abdomen and lower left back. I cannot think any other reason why these spasms would occur other than a result from the tortuous colon. I have also had severe constipation which I cannot find relief for. Has anyone else had anything similar happen?

I was told I have a tortuous colon, and I have severe chronic constipation !

Yes! I have had issues for the past couple of years and told it was Diverticulosis. I had a colonoscopy in June and the doctor told me it was IBSD and I have an extra long colon. It’s miserable. I’m still trying to figure it out. Would love some help too.

Yes, I can say.I have had similar thing happen with me.
Stabbing pain when turning in bed on my left side.
Seem to coincide when I began to have gastro.Issues because of my twisted colon.
Constipation.
Is always a situation that you have to deal with all the time.
Just completed a colonoscop and it was a moderately torturous colon.
I wish that there was a way we could untwist the colons!
i'm going to look into it.
