I'm feeling really worried because I got really dizzy and then started having Hematemesis. When I went to the hospital, they told me that my diastolic pressure is at 115. Also, I've noticed that my left rib cage is bulging more compared to the right side. Could you help me understand what might be going on?

View allI've been told I have diverticulitis, and I've noticed it hurts more when I'm sitting compared to lying down. Is there something about sitting that puts extra pressure on my colon?
It is most likely that when you sit the position causes a touch or increased pressure over the diverticulitis which may cause the pain. These steps may help in the ailment: - Rest well - A liquid diet may be of help during this time period as it may be easier to digest a liquid diet, you can slowly increase to solid food depending on how you tolerate it. - Drink adequate amount of water, aim to rink 2.5 - 3 lietrs of water per day - Prunes or prune juice may serve as natural laxatives, which would help in easier bowel movements - Have a low-fat diet since fat slows down the passage of food through the intestine. - Eat low-bulk foods such as broths and low-fiber breads - Cooked vegetables, cooked fruits, and apples would help with an inflamed intestine - Avoid milk and milk products (yogurts and cheeses),nuts, corn, popcorn, and seeds which could worsen your illness
