Dr. Gott DEAR DR. GOTT: I've been diagnosed with diverticulosis and was not given any instructions about diet. My doctor suggested I take Metamucil forever. Is this disease the same as diverticulitis? DEAR READER: As people age.

they usually develop small pockets that bulge out from tbe intestinal wall. Known as "diverticulosis," this condition is harmless and causes no symptoms. However, on occasion, these pockets can become infected, leading to severe abdominal pain and, often, intestinal bleeding. This affliction is called "diverticulitis" and it requires treatment with antibiotics. Severe cases may need surgery, especially if bleeding is present.

The diagnosis is made by special X-rays or a test called colonoscopy, during which a gastroenterologist examines the intestinal lining with a fiberoptic instrument. There is no consistently recommended diet for either condition. Many physicians suggest the use of added fiber, such as Metamucil, to aid evacuation and, thus, prevent diverticulitis. However, there is no proof that it works. I suggest that you follow your doctor's advice; the Metamucil will certainly not harm you and it may help.

DEAR DR. GOTT: After each meal. I experience sharp pains in my left shoulder. I've had X-rays, blood tests and a cardiogram that were normal. My doctor doesn't believe this is a serious problem but it bothers me.

DEAR READER: Upper intestinal disorders, such as peptic ulcer, can cause pain in the shoulder. "Referred pain" is the term doctors use to describe pain that is perceived in a location somewhat removed from the source of the problem. As another example, gallbladder disease often causes referred pain to the right shoulder. In my opinion, you should see a gastroenterologist, who will prob-; ably perform endoscopy, a test during which the specialist examines your upper intestine. This procedure may reveal an unsuspected ulcer, hiatal hernia or other abnormality.

'Friends' actress starts trend with Aniston tresses No smiling star ice skater, maligned monarch or Spellingesque seductress facing danger at every turn with a loaded gun and the hottest of hot pants; Rachel is the glamorized girl next door. "This trend is different from the others because it's a pretty, soft haircut," Herrick not as animated as the others." No one bothered to imitate tormented heiress KrysUe Carrington's flippy curiosity, he notes, adding that the larger-than-life persona of Linda Evans' "Dynasty" character may have had an influence.

The tendency to imitate popcul-ture paragons can make the stylist's job easier, Tobin said. "It's the easiest way for us to know what clients want," he said. "If we nave a show to watch and we have an idea, we can customize it." Aniston isn't the only high-profile performer sending Shockwaves through the hair industry. Amanda, Heather Loekl ear's character from "Melrose Place," has popularized the obviously highlighted look, making "roots less taboo," Herrick said. Jennie Garth (Kelly on "Beverly Hills wears a shorter shag that is another hot cut, as is model Linda Evangelista's update on the bob.

When a woman decides to morph into yet another trend, the Rachel cut is primed for the change. The wearer can simply decrease the shag or cut it off altogether, said Herrick, who has already performed that amputation. Despite the growing popularity of other styles, the Rachel cut is still in demand. And some clients demand it more creatively than others. At Naturally, customers have arrived, videotape of "Friends" in hand, to use the salon's television and VCR to ensure recognition of the character whose hair they covet.

"People come in with videotapes, TV Guides, every medium that they can," DeLozier said. "Yes, I know that I answer, 'I can do it in my that retro-mod feeling, but not as severe." Be forewarned, however, that getting Aniston's exact look isn't as TV simple as the folks behind "Friends" make it appear. "People don't realize the style is set by her hairdresser," said Trevor Tobin, a stylist at Encounters in Hair in Overland Park. "She doesn't just wake up, blow it dry and it just turns out like that." Women with the cut are divided on the maintenance issue; but encounters with not rollers, volumizer and leave-in conditioners have not flattened their enthusiasm. Carrie Lammert, 21, a receptionist at Naturally, said she is thrilled with the versatility of the cut and hates it when people call it trendy.

"1 can wear it like her (Aniston) or all different sorts of other ways," the Kansas City resident said. "I don't want to look the same every day." The only problem Lammert has with the cut is the clone factor. "Everyone and their dog has this cut," she said. "The only thing I don't like about it is seeing myself coming and going." When RoseEllen Cannizzaro told her hairdresser she was looking for something new, he suggested Aniston's look. It turned out to be the perfect, not too drastic choice for the 24-year-old.

"I hadn't had a layer in my hair for a long time," said Cannizzaro, who lives in Shawnee. "I was never into the Farrah Fawcett style and I'd never been really daring." Although pleased with the result, Cannizzaro said turning her head over to the style of the moment felt risky. "The real test is putting it on yourself," Cannizzaro said. "She looks absolutely adorable with it, but I had a lot of doubts when I got it done." Aside from being adorable, Rachel also represents a new generation of more down-to-earth television characters with more accessible cuts, Herrick said. By TAMARA IKENBERG Kansas City Star KANSAS CITY, Mo.

The secret behind starring in a mega-hit TV show, getting David Schwimmer to fall madly in love with you and having practically every 18- to 36-year-old person in the country plan Thursday nights around you is of course the hair. Jennifer Aniston, Rachel on NBC's "Friends," has joined Dorothy Hamill, Farrah Fawcett, Princess Diana and Halle Berry as the latest media hair icon. "People are walking into salons all across the country and asking for the 'Friends' cut," said Stephanie Tuck, beauty editor of InStyle magazine. "People watch the show for cues of new trends, and Aniston had the strongest, newest style with that cut." But are women flocking to this longer variation on the shag just to resemble Rachel or are other factors involved? Stylists and other experts agree that, although the show drew attention to it, the flexibility of the face-framing, two-layered look and the attractive option it offers women with long, one-length hair are the main selling points. "It's a very safe style for women that can look very conservative or trendy," said Richard DeLozier, a stylist and the owner of Naturally in Kansas City.

"You don't have to lose a lot of length to make a major change." It can be worn down or pulled back for a more dramatic look, and various styling products can help change the look even more. The cut's chameleon temperament is an added perk, according to Shelby Herrick, a stylist at Bijin Salon and Day Spa in Kansas City. "It's never perfect, it never looks the same," he said, "but that's the whole point." The cut also harks back to a much-imitated style of the 1960s, according to Tuck. "It has touches of a late '60s shag," she said. "The newest look is BOOK BREAKFAST Wallace Stegner will be the topic of the season's second New Century Club Book Breakfast at 9:30 a.m.
