Diverticulitis and colectomy

Posted by monicajones @monicajones, May 15, 2018

Has anyone had part of their intestine removed? I have diverticulitis and sometimes I still experience discomfort and constipation.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Digestive Health Support Group.

I had a good portion of the left side of my large intestine removed in 1972. I was young then. now, 40+ years later, I have UC on the right side and diverticulosis on the left side. I see a specialist. my personal suggestion is to take action to avoid constipation either OTC or RX. daa1942
