Hi @maxine50

I understand you when you say, "I just want it to stop." Please remember that good food choices are your best friend when dealing with diverticulitis. A member in another discussion said, "I am trying not to give my body anything to get mad at me."

Often food choices are a result of habits that we've acquired over the years. We like what we are familiar with and what "tastes good." This is not always the best idea when dealing with diverticulitis.

While food choices aren't the only way to control symptoms, they are an important factor. Have you looked at dietary suggestions for dealing with diverticulitis?
