Oh thank you for this, i eat a lot of tomatoes, this could be the culprit.

Tomatoes were the same for me, it might take a bit of time for them to go out of your system then hopefully you will feel better.

Some people find that removing the skin from the tomatoes can help. You plunge them BRIEFLY into boiling water and leave for around 10 seconds only before removing them. The skin then peels off very easily with sharp knife.

Bit of a fag but if you love your tomatoes.....!

thank you all for your suggestions -to be on the safe side I will no longer eat tomatoes

Probably the skins, Diverticulitis has pockets , IBS doesn't

I was told it's the skins and seeds inside and only eat the flesh!!

Tomatoes are on my list of safe but 😩 no
