- I don't touch chocolate or sweets.

- I used to eat a lot of deep-fried crap, but now I eat it once a month.

- I used to smoke whenever I hung out with my friends, but I quit it 100%

- I used to drink like a m***f**er (about 5 - 6 oz a night), but now I drink 1.5 oz a night (beer).

- I never used to work-out, but now I jog at least twice a week. I race on my bike too and do lots of walking.

I have not been to the hospital in 8 years.

Was it ever diagnosed to be be diverticulitis or was it something else?

Glad to hear you are doing well.

I was never placed in the hospital, but looking back, I probably should have admitted myself. (before I seen my specialist and my regular Dr. saying it wasn't diverticulitis!)
