Diverticulosis/irritable bowel syndrome

I found that foregoing cheese, milk and all dairy products has helped enormously. I also take acidophilous, which I believe to help also.
Ewes cheese seems to be acceptable, thankfully, as I am very fond of cheese.

Would like to hear from anyone over the age of 67 who has just had coloscopy (bag) and how they got on. Am due for this op soon and very, very scared. Also of the rate of infection which will be greater for this kind of operation. Have you any experiences? Should I save up and have it done privately (about £8,500-9000!) I don't have cancer but there is another reason for me to have this op.
Would love to hear from anyone with any remarks soon!!

and the next time suspect chicken, who knows, it can be anything.
Stress may also have been a factor last time, was in a long tailback in the heat followed by abnormal (for me) picnic type food.

FYI, research shows they pretty much go together. Diverticulitious - don't eat preservatives or sprays (peel all fruits and vegetables - NO SKINS) (they are mostly responsible for the diverticulitious), IBS - don't eat cheese, ice cream, milk and most dairy, the wheats/gluten, sugars and substitutes, fats and yeast and solid meats like steaks, etc (body can't break it down). NO coffee and eliminate alcohol.
Good Luck, don't worry, you'll sail through!
