You sound like you are going backwards on the anti diverticulitis trek. NSAIDS are a big no. Plus you are probably starting solids and fiber way too soon. Almost the hardest part of the “cure” is sticking to clear liquids for about twice as long as you think you need to. There is no easy way around this disease.

@zilla after 17 years of episodes at random, I have learned the lesson about not going back too soon. This last time I think I rushed the fiber timing. I avoid painkillers unless necessary, but the back issue needed some solution. I should’ve checked for its effect on diverticulitis more, I know it’s not good in general. My ortho guy is good, but this was a bad choice.
