my second diverticulitis flare since first diagnosed In 2000 when hospitalized. This time sent home with antibiotics and on my own. Im willing to try the low Fodmap diet because it seems sound and I also have acid reflux and stomach hernia so Im aware of food triggers and have a crappy diet in general. Id like to try flaxseed meal for more fiber starting out slowly with it. What is your thought on fiax meal ?

I’ve had two diverticulosis flare ups in less than 2 months – one week after discontinuing my 3 round/week of antibiotics, the second flare up occurred. I caught the second earlier and am finishing up the antibiotic.

I have grave (no pun intended) about the amount of antibiotics I have taken.

I am diligently logging all my foods/quantities but I have one BIG question regarding the low FODMAP diet. How soon after eating food that I am sensitive to do symptoms (acid reflux, lower abdominal pains, loose stools) occur?

Last one I was in yhe hospital with iv drip. . It seems to come back about 5 days after taking the antibiotics. Im eating soft foods and low fiber diet. Hoping it doesn’t come back. I recently quit smoking and drinking alcohol for two months
