Husband went to ER a month ago for abdominal pain, ct was done and they diagnosed him with epiploic appendagitis, so far has gotten worse in pain, and seems to be hurting not just in the one area anymore. Went to a Gastro dr today and he wants to do a colonoscopy next week. I know that my husband needs one, but why wouldn't he look at the appendage in case of complications such as an abscess or something to do with what has already been diagnosed. Can you please advise what we should do? Follow up CT on our own at ER, or wait until colonoscopy is done? Not understanding why he is not looking at the epiploic appendagitis. Worried about massive infection and worried colonoscopy might not show anything and we are another week longer with this pain.Thank you in advance
