I believe you need to talk to your doctor about diverticulitis. They will tell you it is an old persons diease, nope I started when I was only 16. I was sore all over my heart would race and sometimes when I went to a doctor they told me I had a chronic Appendix problem. This is very painful, makes you feel like crap and is really an infection in your colon or intestines. Many people die each year when the infection causes a colon to burst or spreads to far to stp. This all can be treated with a diet of NO seeds, like jams, sesame, grapes, watermelon NO peanut butter, no rye bread. You need a good run of antibiotics and you will feel alot better. Promise
