Hi I’m new here I just got diagnosed with pancolonic diverticulosis , and I’m was so surprised since I try to live healthy lifestyle no smoking, no alcohol. I eat mostly vegetables and rarely red meat . I am 60 years old . It’s too hard to accept it .but I know it’s reality I have to accept it.is there any advice. Or I thought eating lots of fiber will help prevent it . Should I change my diet to eating meat now . I had colonoscopy because when I eat quinoa I have excruciating pain but every thing else I have no problems. Just noticed if I eat meat and oily stuff I get constipated that why my diet is mostly vegetables.ant thoughts so I can feel normal again.and by the way also doctor found a small area of thickening so he took biopsy, Sunghee possible cancer now too?

Hi DMABZ, sorry to hear about the tough time you’re having. It’s hard to give a view on diet as everyone is different so what works for one doesn’t always work for someone else. Try our food and symptoms diary which will help you understand patterns between your diet and when you suffer episodes which may or may not be linked.
