I had Deloyer's procedure Jan 7th, 2019. I had bad diverticulitis in 2018, had to have part of sigmoid removed, temp colostomy for 6 months, reversal in July 2018, then a small bowel blockage due to adhesions, another surgery 10 days later to fix blockage that didn't work. Had to go home on PICC line on TPN. Blockage finally cleared, then diverticulitis came back in Nov, reversal site failed then the Deloyers procedure. I am doing really good now, things move pretty quickly, and if I do feel like things slowing down, my surgeon has me take some Senekot. I have only had to take it a few times. There are a few things that do bother me so I avoid them, i.e.: nuts, seeds, lots of roughage and really spicy, greasy stuff.
