Removal of sigmoid colon due to diverticulitis: How to deal with pain?

After three weeks, I still had more frequency. Now after 4 months, I usually go twice a day...sometimes hard stool and sometimes loose. It often depends on what I eat or don't eat, but that appears to be my new normal. I just know that when I have the urge, I should find a way to the bathroom. I really feel great...better than I have in a year or more.

Thank You for your reply.
It gives me a clearer understanding of what is ahead for me. Also comforting.
One more question.. Did you take your fiber supplement at the 4 week post op time?
