Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | Re: IBS and diverticulitis

I am happy to see so many responses to your post. One thing I have found on this site is people not only care about themselves, they care about YOU and everybody suffering with IBS and other digestive problems! We have all been where you are and I can promise ANYTHING you need to know is on THIS site. Heather and all the folks here are knowledgeable, understanding, and helpful ... search no more ... you found a family of success stories at www.helpforibs.com.

For the record, I suffer from diverticulosis and the IBS guidelines posted on this site have been my ONLY saving grace. If you haven't already read Heather's books, I strongly recommend you do. They are loaded with information and help. ALL my questions were answered. I will remind you (as I need to be reminded often) ... DRINK MORE WATER!!! I just suffered with another diverticulitis attack and can determine that it was my lack of water that caused it. I am very faithful to the dietary guidelines set on this site, but I hate water so that's where I slipped. So, buy some peppermint and fennel teas, drink more water and relax ... you're not alone.
