In 2014, I had a bowel obstruction. I had to have emergency surgery. The doctors never mentioned that I had diverticulosis. Years later, I order different medical records, and I see diverticulosis over and over again in my records. I started having extreme pain on the left sid last week.. Every time my bladder filled, the pain became worse until I relieved my bladder. I went to the hospital, and they told me that I had diverticulosis. The doctor explained that because the bladder and colon are in tmsame area, I feel pain in my bladder. The muscle spasms are horrible. I've been constipated since last week. I thought that I was dying. I don't understand why the doctors don't tell you that you have diverticulosis and that there is a possibility that you may get diverticulitus. I've already had the bowel obstruction. I've had continuous issues with constipation. If the doctors tell patients ahead of time, this would give you a chance to change your eating habits. Corn, peanuts, almonds, popcorn, and beans are all things that I eat frequently.

In the year 2024, and the experts still have differing opinions on fiber! Crazy! Thousands of carnivores worldwide consume zero to very little fiber, without any problems.

I used to swallow papaya seeds, but no more as seeds can lodge on the diverticula causing diverticulitis.

I still don't know what I'm supposed to eat to heal my diverticulitis while I have it.
