Nikki, could the doc have said microscopic colitis?
Could be, I wasn't with it yet. Thi is just what my husbaand said.
Diverticulosis and colitis are very different. With the colitis, they're looking under the surface to see if there's either a proliferation of lymphocytes (white cells), or if there is a thickening of a layer of the tissue callled the collagen layer.
With diverticulosis the doc would see 'pockets' however small on the surface.
So I suspect it could be he was checking for MC, although I could be wrong.
So what is MC, and wouldn't I have any symptoms of colitis. By the way CalGal thanks for the input!!
Just Goggled MC. Definitely don't have that. I never have diarrhea. Thanks for the help though.
