Passing mucous and blood 4/5 times a day for last 12 weeks. colonoscopy on friday says diverticular disease. is this normal. ?

Diverticulitis: Diverticuli are small protrusions from the bowel wall, are common and normal. If, however, they become inflamed, it is called diverticulitis and this is obviously not normal.
