"I had been doing a program called GOLO which is eating clean and a pilled called Release which you take at the end of the meal. I have been on it for 1.5 months when I ate fried chicken while camping and overnight the stomach pains started and all the rest. I'm at my wits end because it has caused a major flair up. Was on liquids for 2 days but still no relief so my Gastro Dtr had given me an antibiotic for these occasions and I started taking it, took another 2 days before things seem to be calming down. My question is to others, do you stop taking the antibiotics say after 4 days or do you take longer? I have been diagnosed with Chronic Sigmoid Diverticular Disease and IBS-D. I'm 74 and do need to live forever but while I'm here, I want some quality of life. If I take the antibiotic for the 10 days then my system again is all upset from the antibiotics. It feels like I'm in a dam if I do and dam if I don't. Another question, I've been reading alot about juicing and was wondering if anyone does that to get their vegetables and fruits in. Right now, I'm back to soft foods no fiber. And for the constipation when I get it not often at all but will use Miralax in the evening and so far works. "
