Living with diverticulitis: How do I keep it from coming back?

I can only guess at why the CT scan is necessary. I do know that each diagnostic test is used to track certain problems. MRIs are good to detect some things and CT scans are better to detect other things.
I'm going to tag another mentor, @astaingegerdm, as she has had a lot of gastro problems and she might have some more insight as to why the doctor is asking for a CT now.
Did you ask your doctor why the CT?

No, didn't ask the doctor why a CT after the MRI. I am just hoping he knows what he's doing. After months of this Diverticulosis battle, I just want it to stop!
