[QUOTE="bigdmomof3, post: 412600, member: 100"] Hi, I had to have the surgery back in 2009. I had diverticulitis flares once a month for four months straight. It is a pain that is worse than childbirth! Now I dont want to scare you and my case was different but when they did my surgery they found a tumor and I was diagnosed with stage 3 colon cancer. But it is very rare to have that situation. I went thru my chemo and was just at the oncologist yesterday and all is well. I was out of work about 8 weeks after the surgery. The pain was about the same as what I had with my c-section but your husband wouldn't know what that was like either. Everyone is different but I can tell you I felt so much better after the surgery. I am still very careful about what I eat but that is just because I don't ever want that pain to come back again! They usually determine the need for surgery by the frequency of the flare ups. Good luck with everything and I will keep you both in my prayers. Denise [/QUOTE]
