Your friend jessica calls to tell you she went to see dr. reilly and he recommended she have a colonoscopy. jessica tells you a family friend had a colonoscopy in the past and had diverticulum removed. she is concerned because she doesn’t believe she needs surgery when she hasn’t even been diagnosed with anything yet. step 2: create a new thread for your initial post by wednesday at 11: 59pm est respond to the following prompts in your initial post: explain how you would respond to what jessica has told you. describe how your knowledge of medical terminology you determine what to say to jessica. describe a circumstance that knowledge of medical terminology could potentially be an advantage in your personal life.

Colon is the large intestine which absorbs water and minerals from the ingested food and removes the undigested food through rectum. Diverculum is a small tissue sac formed inside the colon. The condition of having Divercula is called as Diverticulosis.

Diverticulosis causes abdominal pain, constipation, diarrhoea and sometimes bleeding in most people. Some people do not even get any symptoms of having it. The presence of divercula is observed through colonoscopy. If Jessica doesn't have any of the symptoms, then she should not worry about it.

If the doctor prescribes her to get colonoscopy done then she can be positive and hope for the best. Having a medical knowledge can help one in any of the circumstances be it common cold, fever, a disease or if the person has met with an accident.
