What does diverticulitis have to do with weight gain?
In my case, some of the few things that didn’t seem to trigger the attacks bread, pasta and I liked them way too much.
Another unrelated thing was I lived on Prilosec since it was a thing.
I couldn’t go more than three days without no matter what I did. That went on until about two years ago. That was when I came home from nearly dying from diverticulitis.
The medical types theory was Prilosec masked some kind of infection.
At that point I didn’t care. I was in enough misery from surgery but I was free of Prilosec.
All I can guess I had been out of kilter all along.
I had the pain attacks since my early teens but not diagnosed until much later.
