hi. i connected with this site to find a GI surgeon who will give me info as i have diverticular disease and flare ups of diverticulitis every few weeks and antibiotics which dont really take away the pain anymore. i had a pik line inserted and was on antibiotics for 11 weeks. fine for a bit and pain has come back. consults with surgeons and they say i need surgery but i could get sepsis and die. i need to have surgery and scared and no surgeon will touch me i am so upset, depressed, no quality of life and tired of excruciating pain. the sigmoid colon is rotting i am sure. PLUS i have a mobile cecum bowel what do i do?????

So sorry to hear this. I have 2 friends that had the surgery and they did very well. Hope you are also taking probiotics to get your microbiome healthy.
