I tried to control with diet but that didnt work for me. no matter what i ate i was still having attacks. My doctor said i was one of the unlucky ones. I was in and out if the hospital, ER and lots of doctor visits . I also had C Diff and once they got me healed enough i was scheduled for surgery. I had already had a small preforation and was at risk for rupture.
i had my surgery Halloween day on Thursday and left the hospital on Saturday. I was expecting to stay 4 or more days. surgeon said i was healed and could ear what ever i wanted. I soon got back to my regular weight plus some. Good luck
