I've talked to many people who suffer with diverticulitis. The one thing everyone has in common, is the fact it is very painful when they have an attack.

Each person has their own story on what has helped to resolve their problem. For most, it is only temporary.

There are two places I've in which you can be a participant in a study done my various universities and hospitals.

Check out clinical connections and see if their is a study being done in your area. Another place to check for more studies is clincial trials.gov.

As expensive as health is these days, it would be nice to be a part of a study which is the most up to date research in diverticulitis and have it free as well.
