Do you know that 80% of americans have diverticulois? But most dont end up like us with diverticulitis. Why??? Well, I have noticed that along with getting diverticulitis i get other bacteria related symtoms. Like Blemishes in my scalp, and in the enter of my chest. I also get a jock itch type of rash, and tend at times to get a yeast type irritation where I'm not circumcised. This all goes away with Cipro. Now i take a bath every day and I'm very clean about myself. i have a badeut (sp) and i use it.
So....I'm beginning to believe that it's a bad bacteria build up that causes people like us to get these attackks..anyone else notice this bacteria probelm? By the way i also have an anal fistula.
