Hi, I’m 68, was suppose to have my entire colon removed in September 2021. I just couldn’t do it. It’s a long story but after spine surgery that took 7 hours my bowels never woke up from anesthesia . I live on an extremely simple diet. I takeB12 shots, liquid multi, prescription vit D and everything in gell or liquid form when a pharmacy can do it. All those meds for this issue didn’t work. I’m doing it on my own. I also have a significant tortuous colon which doesn’t help.
I never eat out. I go out, but I don’t eat. I’m so used to this way of life. It’s about doing it to feel good. You desperately need testing and after the Ct I hope they keep going because it doesn’t show everything. Be your own advocate and be pushy but kind. Don’t settle for drugs get to the why. Good luck.

Hi Joanne

I’m scared I read on internet that if the diverticuliti burst you can get sepsis
Which is deadly
