Feeling Great, Hope to Help Others!

Hi Everyone, Well, it's been a year since I wrote my last journal entry, detailing my regimen which has helped keep my diverculosis from erupting into diverculitis.   I'm delighted to report that it is STILL working! If anything, my function has improved even more, and most days I have energy and feel pretty good.   The only episode I've had was a few weeks ago, when I felt that old discomfort in the descending colon -- almost an ache -- but I think that was from a generalized GI upset since I did not have the focused sharp pain on the left and had discomfort higher up as well. I've added two more things to my daily supplements:  coenzyme Q, 100 mg. in the morning, and one fiberchoice tablet twice a day.  As someone else noted in a recent discussion, too much fiber has always been a problem for me too, but the fiberchoice seems to be ok (it is supposed to be fruit fiber...  I always buy the regular, not sugar free).    So, for those of you still struggling, consider trying some version of the regimen I outlined in my last entry.  Feel free to contact me directly too at pmrose@buffalo.edu. In Health -- Pam  -- Pam
