Diverticulitis and constipation

Mine told me the same thing but I am still very nervous about eating seeds and nuts. My GI also told me it was very important to keep my stools soft so that fecal matter didn’t get stuck. She advised me to take Miralax twice a week and Metamucil daily. I try to eat a high fiber diet. I still have occasional issues of pain in my lower left side and when that happens I go on a liquid diet. I’ve had diverticulitis that landed me in the ER 3 times so I’m trying hard to avoid another flare up.
It sounds like our GI’s are on the same page.
