I appreciate your comment, @ayersg. Often it is helpful to maintain a food diary to try and understand what foods might trigger symptoms. Finding the right eating plan is certainly challenging but worth the effort.

If you are comfortable sharing more information, how long have you been dealing with diverticulitis? Have you had any treatments other than changes in your diet?

I’m one of the lucky ones, just dealing with this the last couple of years. I’ve been able to deal with it by switching to a low fibre soft diet and antibiotics a couple of times but I’m having trouble accepting this as a lifestyle for the rest of my days. I’m having a colonoscopy in a couple of weeks that I’ve been waiting for more than a year for. Hopefully it reveals something that will help more long term.
