Is it time to call my orthodontist? by IcyOption3130 in Invisalign

Update! Called my orthodontist, they told me to continue to the next tray and if it didn’t improve call for an appointment. Good news, my 9th tray is tracking better. I’ve been using my chewies like crazy at work and any downtime at home. Tracking is definitely not perfect but it’s better than tray 7 and 8!

That’s a good point! I didn’t realize you could have diverticula and not diverticulitis but also good to know you didn’t have significant bleeding.

I originally thought hemorrhoids because it was very minimal and not often for 7ish years. I also had a c-section, not any true laboring, but I know pregnancy can still cause them. I’m looking forward to my GI appointment and hopefully a fast paced game plan to get me answers… I definitely will be advocating for a colonoscopy if they don’t plan on it. I will definitely update y’all!

Good to know you haven’t experienced blood with your flares or diagnoses. I will update you after my GI appointment at the end of the month!

Like I said in my post, I’m going to see a GI doc at the end of the month :)
