Debbie went to the Doctor this morning and he told her she's going to have the surgery to remove part of her colon. However, he doesn't want her to have the surgery until the pain is gone completely. I guess if you have the surgery while your colon is infected then the patient has to wear the colostomy bag. But if the infection is gone then they can re-attach the colon after the section is removed.
How long it will be before the pain is gone is anyone's guess. But since she has had Diverticulitis twice in the last three years means it'll only get worse as time goes by.
We'll keep everyone posted.
