Has anybody had any trouble with constipation and diverticulosis and their Lap Band. I had my band put on 8 weeks ago and I have had 2 rounds of PAIN with diverticulosis. I did ask my surgeon about this and he said there has never been a study to see if the band makes this problem worse. I have a Servere case of it and need some answers quick! It is NOT diverticulitus, it is LOSIS:cursing:. Sorry to be sooo graffic but my colon looks like Swiss Cheese, full of holes.............

I drink Miralax everyday. Also drink at least 60oz of fluid. Exercise helps too. I have had diverticulitis serveral times and had to have colon resections. Since the band I haven't had any problems because I drink alot of water and tea. I do take Miralax every night. Mix it in water. It has no taste. Check the warning on the label before you buy it to see if you might be sensitive to it.
