Hi Marie, I am so sorry to hear you struggling with MC. But I can tell you from experience that what Tex is saying is so so true! Less is better when you eat! I was in remission for a long time because I stuck with what I knew my stomach could handle. Then I decided to venture out an broaden my hori...

Hi all, I get my B12 sublingual at Trader Joes. There pretty tasty too. I have been using them since I became a member here and I have had no problems with them. They have not bothered me even though they have lactose in them and red dye (I am allergic to both). They are very tiny so maybe that's wh...

It slowed my D down but didn't take it away completely. I had to also go entercort which then helped tremendously. I gained a lot of weight on it, but need it because I had lost so much when I first got sick.

Good luck,
Robin

It was DEFINITELY worth every penny! When I first was diagnosis with MC I ate a lot of chicken soup (my thinking was nobody gets sick from chicken soup, it suppose to make you feel better). I took out the noodles when I started listening to everyone here on this message board and I put in brown rice...
