Am I at Risk for Diverticulosis?
It
takes a long time to develop diverticulosis. Often, it is something a
physician will discover at the time of a colonoscopy for a cancer
surveillance exam. This means that most of the time diverticuli cause no
problems. However, no one can be sure. So, even though the physician
may not make much of colon diverticuli, which are causing no problems,
it should be a warning that the diet may be low in fiber. So anyone can
get diverticulosis and anyone can have symptoms of diverticulosis and
its complications.
