Health Problems

[OnlySunshine]

My depression has been improving thanks to new medication which I am very thankful for.  Unfortunately, my gastrointestinal symptoms have worsened.  I was in and out of the bathroom last night due to horrible intestinal issues so I didn't get much sleep.  I've had stomach cramping and pain off and on, as well.  My GI doctor's nurse emailed me today and they are treating me for diverticulitis (I have a strong family history of it on my father's side) as well as pyloric-negative gastritis.  I'm making sure I'm not eating too much in the way of sugar since that seems to exacerbate my symptoms and I'm keeping with the low-FODMAP diet I've been prescribed for my IBS-M.  Please say some prayers that my symptoms improve.  If they don't, my doctor plans to do further testing.
