Hi everyone, I'm still around, checking the posts every day, but don't have much to add. Still learning a lot. But here is an update. My GI doc decided to try me on prednisone. He "guaranteed" that it would work, and quickly. Ha ha. I was on 40mg for 17 days and figured that was enough of ...

Hi Sharon, I'm new to this community too! You will probably get as many unique answers to this question as there are people on this board. This is what I take (it's fairly minimal). D3 I take 5000 IU almost every day. My levels were low. If I use my anti-inflammatory medical food, I cut down to 3-4x...

That's great! I've had dental issues all my life (waiting on a perm crown right now), so this is news I like to hear.

I have tried some of this company's products and seriously, regardless of the package claims, the products are just not that good. I do like the coconut wraps, but will now be more careful about what's in them. I don't think that Julian makes them, I think they can be gotten from other outlets but I...

Thanks so much! I usually use almond milk but since I'm in "superelimination" phase, I thought I should maybe try something else.

Question about dairy substitutes

So I'm eliminating grains, nuts, and soy. Does that leave only coconut milk as a dairy substitute?

So now I feel out of place because I have always been laid back, easygoing, no sweat, make a mistake and just start over type. Maybe that plus my procrastination factor caused my diagnosis to take almost 20 years! :lol: Since I'm not so precise and perfectionist, I have to keep in the front of my mi...

Thank you so much for the welcome! My recent diet history has been mostly paleo, not because of the MC, but because the diet just makes so much sense to me. But last year my doc put me on an allergen elimination diet that I followed to a T for 12 weeks. No gluten (no grains at all, except some occas...

Finally diagnosed after almost 20 years

Pleased to be here and happy to finally be diagnosed after all these years. I have to say that it is partially my fault for this because I am not a person to doggedly follow up on things. I would get frustrated and just live with the symptoms. Luckily I have very little pain or gas and I have my own...
