Katsolo's Journal, 28 April 2021

Having an episode of diverticulitis, this is not real weight, but explains why I couldn't finish my lunch yesterday. Good times, good times. Will be eating small portions, super easily digestible stuff the next few days and tons of fluids. Did I say good times, good times yet? Ugh. I need to figure out if I can make this a fat cutting opportunity. Movement is a little limited, but I can still walk, maybe swim and spin, I assume. No twisting. Will turn the current down though. Gentle in all movements. I suspect this is a direct result of high stress and not getting up enough during the day. I'm sitting here cussing because I really don't need this right now, but it's also my own darn fault. Stretchy pants FTW!

Press on, press on. Seems super fitting today.

Thanks Kay, it'll be okay, it's just a real big inconvenience sometimes. I'm pretty good at catching it early these days, so I should be fine as long as I'm careful with what I eat until it passes. Are you going to post some baby pics today? 😍😍😍

Diverticulitis is horrible. I too can catch it early, when I feel that “twinge” in my left side I back off food and baby it for awhile

Be well, sweetie. Take care of yourself.

ouch, that hurts! I hope you feel better soon.

Yes that is tough. I hope you feel better soon. Do you need to think about a food choice adjustment or does it just happen once in a while regardless?

Oh Kat, that's a heck of a thing to deal with. Our oldest son gets a flare up every once in awhile. Hope you're pain free soon. ❤

Oh I am sorry I know that can be a painful one. Stay well.

@kenna, it hits when I spend too much time sitting at my desk, which I have totally been doing since my coworker left. I eat fairly high fiber until it hits, then i stop until it goes away. sometimes, it goes away for years at a time, then it sneaks back. I'm using my kneeling chair and doing some work standing up which all helps. food is plain. and I've been slacking on water. my own fault.

Hope You feel better soon. I had a client with diverticulitis. I know the agony too well. ❣️

It’s interesting. I can’t wear any of my pants today, not even the sweats. Solution: wearing a dress.

I'm still trying to figure out this diverticulosis diagnosis. My doctor didn't tell me squat, just that I have it. GEE thanks buddy! Mind you, I didn't ask any questions, and haven't really had a chance to since then. What happens when you have an attack? Gas? Diarrhea or constipation?? Pain? Sorry for all the questions.

Lfcho, If i catch it early, sharp pain, bloating, loss of appetite and that’s about it for me. That would be an 8/10 on the pain scale, but only if i move wrong. I try not to do that. Some people get constipated or have diarrhea. I try to quit eating before that and monitor for fever which would be infection. I’ve read horror stories about what can happen if things rupture which includes fever, infection and bleeding, up to and including sepsis. I’m not interested in going that far if i can help it. Bland and very sparse diet, lots of fluid and laying down really does help. So while mine hasn’t gotten better, it hasn’t gotten worse either. Walking hurts, but it also keeps things moving, so i do it anyways. Fun, huh? 😆
