Hi

Does anyone find the pain wakes them up at night and somehiw seems so much worse

Hi Kate!

When I had my flare ups, I experienced severe pain that woke me up at night. I was always nervous to fall asleep because the pain that woke me up was usually much worse than anything else. I would practically holler out as it felt like someone stabbed me in my lower left abdomen. The twinges I felt while awake was nothing compared to the pain that woke me at night. I found myself using the heating pad a lot and watching what and how much I ate throughout the day and night.

Hi Yendora,

Like you I am getting to stage where I am afraid to go to bed as I know Iwill not get a nights sleep,

usually around 3 or 4 in morning horrible pain will wake me usually in my back or lower abdomin, it makes

me so scared that this is something much worse than diverticulitis.

Hi I’m new to this site, I have had this pain for 3 months now.  

Although I have not been diagnosed because my pain is on the Right side of my Abdomen not on my Left side.

I have all symptoms except no fever. 

Doctors do not know what to tell me I have except inflamed Rib/RibCage.  Which I don’t. 

I’m so frustrated because of the Pain which leads to Nausea, Dizziness, and Migraines.

Just wanted to thank you for listening to me.

Hello Zoitsa1

Why dont you insist with your doctor to have a colonoscopy and a ct scan of you abdomen,

at least then you will have peace of mind about what is causing your pain, contact any time,

we are all on this forum to try console each other, feel well soon.

Hi Kate, I have had all tests except colonoscopy and MRI

Because the other tests come back negative they say there’s nothing more they can do
