I was diagnosed with diverticulitis at the age 16, I have suffered severe attacks over the years, at 20 I fell pregnant and almost immediately the complications of my incurable disease began, I experienced rigor due to a whole body infection, bleeding within the placenta, I was on bed rest at 12 weeks pregnant, until 14 weeks when I lost my baby. I strongly advise women who are ttc and have diverticulitis to request a removal of the diseased part of the bowel, I would not wish the physical pain, emotional agony and the terrifying experience I went through. This disease should not be taken lightly.
