Welcome Dee. As a long time IBS D person I shuttered when I read your post. I don't have the added problem of diverticulitis and so I can't really relate but surely the GI (although maybe not) knows how bad the high fiber is for an IBS sufferer. My only recommendation is for you to try to balance the SF and IF and stay away from trigger foods. For me even oatmeal is a trigger so high fiber is out. I eat rice, potato or bread before every meal to cushion other foods. I have now determined how to keep from getting D for the most part. I would think that with a little adjustment of the SF and IF you could reach that point where your system works quickly enough for the diverticulitis but doesn't cause you the cramping and the D that goes with an IBS attack!! Good luck to you and keep us posted.
