I have a diagnosis of diverticular disease myself, had a flare up and spent two days in hospital with it. Never want to experience it again. I feel for you.

Hi I have diverticulitis and know how painful and disabling this can be at first I was diagnosed with ibs but the symptoms got worse I find if I eat too much meat as it is a solid food it makes my diverticulitis flare up in times of a flare up its best to stick to soft or even a fluid diet it's also important to drink plenty of water I have been admitted once into hospital and I never want to get to that point again .
