MICROSCOPIC COLITIS SUPPORT

Very helpful, thank you as always.

I had a colonoscopy this week and specifically asked the gastroenterologist to test for the lymphocytic colitis. I got my lab test tonight - no trace of the LC! Did I cure it with diet? Is it in deep remission? I don't know, but I'm so used to gluten-free that I think I'll stick with that, though a ...

I've been following the Dr. Fuhrman recommendations and I'm doing a LOT better (gained back to a healthy weight, BM 2x or occasionally 3x a day, without urgency, generally reasonably solid stool).

As far as my Enterolab results go, though, I couldn't tell if soy was any worse than the meats, or eggs, or dairy; it looks like I'm reacting to all of it, and they're so oddly rated (the mean val...

I'm 64, and was suddenly plunged into the world of urgent WD at the end of July 2012. I was diagnosed with LC in September of 2012. The GI prescribed budesonide but I thought I'd try some alternatives first. I'm a vegan and have been following Dr. Joel Fuhrman's precepts (eating natural foods, leani...
