[QUOTE="Marcie Mac, post: 543795, member: 47"] I stopped smoking back in December and do pretty well cept when my stress levels go up. I bought an E Cigarette (N Joy) and its helped immensly with the craving-with me I think it is a sensory thing. It has a very small amount of nicotine and comes like a small mist. I found some others on line that you can refil yourself and you can get them without the nicotine. I tried sucking on hard candies and it doesnt work for me. Stress and smoking has a big impact on my developing diverticilutis. Trying to figure out what I could/can eat was really confusing as the doctors don't have a "diet" per se, and searching the internet was/is confusing at best. I am not supposed to eat anything with seeds or skins, no corn, brocolli, nuts, grapes, etc but then you have studies like the one done by the Mayo clinic which says it doesn't matter. They need to remind me of that when I am doubled up in pain because one of those have gotten stuck in one of the holes that are still in my remaining colon. Am in the throws of an anxiety/panic attack because yesterday I ate a cherry and swallowed the pit LOL Had to call the doctor and he said I "should" be ok, just stay away from eating anything "heavy". Am thinking what in the heck constitutes "heavy" What helped me the most with my diet is joining a board for diverticilutis suffers and they are a big help as far as food goes. I found that no one had the same reaction to certain foods, however, EVERYONE had the same stomach reaction when it came to stress, smoking and alcohol. Mayby finding a board with your illness may help. Hugs Marcie [/QUOTE]
