A member asked:

Are chest pains normal with diverticulitis?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Diverticulitis.: Abdominal pains would be normal with diverticulitis, not chest pains. That's not to say it couldn't happen, but it would not be normally expected. Your chest pains should be addressed primarily as if they're a separate issue.
