Change your diet??? I am sure there is a remedy for you, a constitutional one but you have to find a homeopath you trust to take your complete case for you!! I recently gave a patient a constitutional rx (Thuja) and the Diverticulosis pains etc that he had not had for a year or so returned 2 nights running!!! Since then he has been OK. He nearly went screaming to the hospital both times but the lifted after a couple of hours.
Hope you feel better soon.

Dear Alva
As you would probably know, about 20% of cases of diverticulosis progress to diverticulitis.
The main cause of diverticulosis, as you are probably aware, is constipation which when left unchecked/untreated places pressure on weakened sections of the colon eventually forming diverticuli.
Constipation is easily treatable, with diet and homoeopathy. However, once the diverticuli form, it is more difficult to deal with.
Re the inflammation, I believe that if you were under the care of a competent homoeopath, this may have been preventable.
Do you have a Homeopath? Or are you treating yourself?
Hope you are feeling better
Regards
Robyn

She is a homeopath...
But Alva, have you had the help of *another* good homeopath to prescribe for
you?
