I have diagnosed SS, can this be connected to diverticulitis which I have now too?

Hi CGWestview,

There is no evidence to show that Sweet's syndrome is directly linked to diverticulitis. However, there is another condition called bowel bypass syndrome. BBS can be a complication of bowel bypass surgery, but is also associated with diverticulitis. Sweet's syndrome can be a symptom of BBS.
