Hi, I have abdominal pain on left lower side along with fever on the past 2 days ..now I just feel sick , no more fever . pain specially when I seat ,, advice me how I can get a diagnostic on this , besides a colonoscopy?

Thank you Josela for joining us here. I m sorry to hear that you are suffering, I have forwarded your question to a licensed nurse i know who has had Diverticulitis before and expect to hear back shortly on what they recommend.

Hello Joselo I found out that having a CT scan can confirm the diagnosis without a colonoscopy. He also said to take a picture of your stool and send it in as the color and texture can help with diagnosis, and you may want to look into latest info on recommended diets to avoid exacerbating symptoms. Please let me know if I can help further.
