Ischemic colitis

Ischemic colitis

I was just hospitalized and diagnosed with ischemic colitis.  It has ben about 31/2 weeks.  I have continued to have pain and discomfort.  Does this seem normal?  Should it have cleared up by now?  I am not taking any meds nor do I.  I do not have a heart condition, diabetes or are taking hormone drugs. I was checked for bacteria and as expected those tests were negative.  At this time they are checking for blood disorders.  My concern is should I be feeling better?  It hurts to eat and even when I am not eating I have abdominal discomfort.  What's that all about?
