Bowel

I was diagnose with both diverticulosis and Ibs. I also had a diverticulitis attack. The diets for each are confusing one insoluable fibre the other soluable. What is to be done when you have both.

I wish someone would answer this.  I have the same problem.  I'm terrified of seeds, nuts, although the GI Doc says it doesn't make any difference.  The IBS book I bought suggests soluble fiber which makes me constipated, and the insoluable fiber makes the pain unbearable.  I hope you  get an answer.  I'm also not looking forward to surgery due to the diverticulitis, so I would like very much to know how to keep it under control. I know this hasn't helped, but I'm in the "same boat."
