It has bee about 2 months now and i am 74 years old. i am female with diabetis which i take a pill for every day. i had diverticlitis a few years ago but it went away with antibiotics . please advise me what to do
Thank you. Have you any aggravating factor like after taking meal or relieved after defecation or in empty stomach?any history of passage of loose stool ?the pain may be due to chronic calculus cholecystitis, ch.pancreatitis, diverticulitis,PUD, non ulcer dyspepsia or some form of malabsorption. You may take pantoprazole 20 mg 12 hourly. If it is progressing then go for a USG or consult a gastroenterologist.
