# Diverticular Rebleeding Risk — archived pointer

This page is no longer canonical. Its useful conclusions were folded into [GI Bleeding / Diverticular / Stool Blood](#sec-diverticular) on 2026-05-10.

Preserved core rule: the April 2026 pattern no longer fits “quiet since Aug 2025,” but it also does not look like imminent major diverticular hemorrhage without visible bleeding, hemodynamic symptoms, or hemoglobin collapse. Alcohol remains relevant for gut/sleep/BP/upper-GI irritation and experiment clarity, but it is not the central explanation for normalized calprotectin plus positive stool blood.
