hi i'm experiencing getting diverticulitis as well., I've been getting it every three months.. I know that my cpap machine is causing it. i've been to my gastro dr., primary care dr. and now i'm going to do a sleep study and possibly change my machine from a cpap to a bipap.. i'm not using any machine at the moment. I'm afraid to.

Hi @hklucy123 - welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. I'm curious about the connection between your CPAP and diverticulitis. What did the doctors you saw say about this? Did they see a link between these? If so, did they explain how this happens?
