During that time I had great energy and felt back to normal, but now that I've been on just the Entocort for two weeks it's back to D. My...

I wish I would have found this forum sooner. sometimes it seems like you're the only person in the world with these problems. My next plan is to ask my doctor about L-Glutamine. I have...

Hi I'm new to this forum, but not new to lymphocytic colitis. I have not had in flare in over 5 years which I attribute to being on LDN. However, this past Feb I decided to do a liver detox and came off my LDN for 5 weeks and back came the colitis. My first bout of colitis was managed very poorly. I...
