I was told years ago during my annual Colonoscopy, that I had Divirticulitis. But never had any pain at all. I just woke up one morning last year with horrible pain on left side. I called my son...he called an ambulance and within just an hour, I was in surgery. Doctor said I barely made it.

I will say again, Wow! Well I will definitely take it more seriously when I get that familiar pain. When my son had his surgery he was in pain for about a week and a half and he kept going to the hospital. They did not find the problem until about the third trip. I guess I thought it would take more time to actually become inflamed enough to do that kind of damage.
