Hey there, pretty lady!
I like your doctor. I like him A LOT. Free samples of Equalactin? How can I get an appointment with this guy?
You are so lucky that he found the diverticuli for you. So many, MANY people have diverticulosis that are never diagnosed until they get a full-fledge diverticulitis attack. (Like me.) Being forewarned is being forearmed. Don't let those little pockets get infected. You should give up all nuts and especially SEEDS. Clean out your spice cabinet of all seeds -- poppy seeds, celery seed, cumin seed -- and make sure to only eat the outside portion of tomatoes, never the seeds! They're just evil.
I had a real bad reaction to Zantac 75, but Pepcid AC rocks! Aren't you or weren't you already taking your fiber on a regular basis?
Oh yeah, I like this doc. So glad you went yesterday. You done good, Girlfriend.
