Well, my condition known as diverticulosis has turned into Diverticulitis. Which basically means it is swollen and infected. Diverticulosis are pockets that form on you intestine and they can become clogged with things like nuts or corn or ay other thing that is hard to digest.
Last time I had it I spent 4 days in a hospital, but this time the doctor is letting me try antibiotics at home. He also gave me some pain medicine that gets me pretty goofy to start and then knocks me right out and it is about to kick in..........................................................good nigzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

I had that 3 times this year. I was in the hospital for 5 days the first time, the rest of the time I have lived on Vicodin ES 2 pills every 4 hours and then 2 different antibiotics. That is one of the most painful afflictions you can have so I totally feel your pain. Mine is caused because I have polycystic kidneys and they are enlarged and sometime push on the intestine so I get a blockage and then the diverticuli get infected. Not pleasant. I hope you are feeling better!
