Well I had epiploic appendagitis. A fancy way of saying one of the fatty sacks on the outside of the colon twisted around cut off its blood supply and died. Painful but self limiting the sack became inflamed but the problem will clear up on its own. The reason my liquid diet helped the pain was because it slowed the movement of the colon so it wasn't agitating the sack. I really like my doc, he even printed out a medical paper for me to read up on it. The pain is better than it was and will go away in another week or so.


Glad you got answers and will be on the mend very soon.
