MICROSCOPIC COLITIS SUPPORT

Gabes, a lot of what I know is self taught. I'd rather not say who the genetic practitioner/consultant was I used as I am not pleased with her right now. There are others you can skype with who are costly. Well, all of them are costly. Here are a few I know are the most popular: 1. Dr. Armine or Sha...

Theresa, RAG1 is in the IGE group. You may have allergy/histamine issues. Stay away from high histamine foods and histamine releasing foods: Histamine in Foods There are many foods that contain histamine or cause the body to release histamine when ingested. These types of reactions are food intolera...

I haven't been on here in a while as I've been doing pretty well. LDN helped me a lot but I recently went off it as I believe it was giving me stomach cramps. IV vitamin C has been miraculous and also effective is transdermal and IV glutathione. That being said, I did the whole 23andme and liked www...

Hi All, It's been awhile. I have been holding my own not doing too bad until I got the toothache from hell a month ago. After much fighting with my dentist and endodontist, I relented to have a root canal that was divided into three parts. This was under a crowned tooth and I initially begged my den...

Are you all doing the 23andme? My naturopath ordered a MTHFR test. I am heterozygous for both A1298C and C677T. I can't mail out the 23andme test for all the other gene mutations until I visit my son at college in Vermont next weekend. New York State doesn't allow saliva samples to be sent out. Make...

Just an update that the glutathione push made my liver area hurt for two days. Of course it has not been reported as a side effect. Like I said before. Lucky me. I do have an issue with constant stress on my bile duct and liver due to duodenal contents refluxing into my bile duct. This is the result...

I have a double mutation of the MTHFR gene. I have a whole host of issues because of it and my fluoroquinolone toxicity. I tried out a glutathione IV push today at my naturopath's office (it is operated under a functional MD and has several RNs as well). I also get acupuncture there and signed up fo...

I just read Grain Brain by Dr. Perlmutter. Very good. Much of what he wrote is similar to the links you shared, Tex. The only thing I grateful for with Dr. Mercola is that he tackles some very real problems head on like the dangers of fluoroquinolones, while mainstream medical doctors aren't doing a...

Thanks!!! Birthday was nice.

I am much better. I ate very little and seem to be back on track. I went to my naturopath yesterday and then had acupuncture. It was very helpful. Hoping it lasts. At least no D this morning!

Yesterday, my naturopath "prescribed" Pure Encapsulations Boswellia AKBA. This particular kind (other cheaper brands like Swanson's have the same type) provides ten times as much AKBA as typical boswellia extracts, providing 30% acetyl-11-keto-beta boswellic acid (AKBA). From the literatur...

Your story is so similar to mine however I've been ill with the D since December 28, 2013. I am so glad things are working so quickly. That is great news! I have severe headaches and that thirst issue--I thought I was the only one. I drank gallons of water and was always dehydrated. But I was losing...

I know this reply is a month later but wanted you to know I was doing great in remission then took one aspirin and had D and abdominal pain again. Luckily it only lasted a day or two but then tried taking one ibuprofen (I have had a severe toothache) and have been in a D and abdominal pain flare for...

I swear I spoke too soon and I should have knocked on wood. I am in a flare from the one aspirin and one ibuprofen I took for the severe tooth pain. I feel so stupid. The first time I took the aspirin a week and a half ago I only had D for a day. I took the ibuprofen on Saturday and am now on day 3 ...

Tex, Have you ever been on a fluroquinolone like Cipro, Levaquin, or Avelox? That is what caused my neuropathy. I have the MTHFR mutation and it appears folks with this mutation get hit hardest with the fluoroquinolone toxicity symptoms. There is some good information at: www.myquinstory.info. The r...
