I have had 3 occurrences of diverticulitis, after the first time you recognize the symptoms and where the pain is. The first time the testing and antibiotics through my PCP worked to cure the event. The 2nd time the symptoms had just started (not to severe) and I went in for a colon cleansing. Guess what, the symptoms went away and that was a year ago. This 3rd time the symptoms were major pain and off to the urgent care for more antibiotics and am feeling better. I'm not a doctor so I can't offer professional advice to anyone. Since the wall of the colon becomes irregular and can trap seeds etc. inside the colon, it only makes sense that to remove the trapped particulate that is irritating the colon would be a good thing. I can also see that if you held the water in creating to much pressure within the colon that the cleansing process may damage the colon in a week area. I did not dare to do the cleansing this time because my pain was to severe. If the pain was less intense I would have went for the colon cleansing. That does not mean that I enjoy the process, what it does mean is I would prefer warm purified water cleansing instead of waiting for a doctor for 4 hours to get prescription drugs and then tacking antibiotics for 10 days. Everyone is different, good luck.

Colon cleansing is absolute crap - No, really.... You'd have to have your head up your taco shell to think it useful - the cleansing, not the taco shell.
