Question: I have had constant diarrhea, body pain, excess gas and I feel terrible. I had a bout of diverticulitis last year, but this doesn't feel the same. How long does one wait for an answer?

Brief Answer:
Hi

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome to HCM
Thank you for your query
I understand your concern

Well if you have constant diarrhea need to get yourself evaluated with stool examination, thyroid function test, complete blood count and blood sugars
If you are already diabetic then need to strictly control sugars
Get a colonoscopy or coeliac screening (gluten hypersensitivity) if deemed necessary by your physician
With there need to see whether it's just an irritable sensitive stomach or some infection which needs some separate treatment

In the mean while take adequate water hydration and avoid milk and milk products

Hope this answers your questions
Wish you a speedy recovery
