I'm glad to hear that, @darin. While I'm sure each individual case is different, I've noticed that a lot of people who have colostomies, etc. tend to have it reversed after 6 months or so. It is not always permanent.

We also have a discussion group on colitis, here is the link, https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/recurring-diverticulitis-colitis/. I would like to invite @suez and @lisabeans who have both discussed colitis treatments and meds they have taken.

I would like to know how this all works out for you. Will you keep in touch?
