MICROSCOPIC COLITIS SUPPORT

Hi Tex, Thank you for your reply. No, I didn't add anything new, but I'm thinking you're right in saying it was too much citric acid. I've only used very small amounts of lime or lemon juice in recipes to add flavor, and really nothing else in the citrus family. I think I just got a little over zeal...

Hello All, I was having some good luck with the Autoimmune Paleo diet - actually seeing a significant decrease in the frequency and having some normal BM's - then I ate some pineapple last night with a baked chicken breast and my mouth was on fire and tingly with a fuzzy feeling in the back of my th...

Gigi, I am new on this board, so I don't have the experience of many of the other people who have posted a response to you, but I understand your frustration. After reading your post, I would say that we are "cut from the same cloth." Even though I was just recently diagnosed last month, I...

Thanks everyone for your suggestions! I tried smoothies, but I think I was still too "reactive" at the time - it seemed everything I consumed was giving me a problem, but in the last week things have calmed down a little, so I'll try it again!

I was wondering if anyone has had a weight loss problem with the Autoimmune Paleo diet. I've been improving a little with the frequency of my D, and have even started to have some small improvement with the consistency (not the crazy watery D), but I am continuing to lose weight and it's starting to...

Thank you, everyone! I guess I need to stop saying I have "IBS" :-) I actually have enough "labels" to last me a while - I won't miss that one. Cindy, thank you for your suggestions. I purchased the "Practical Paleo" book and I am targeting the Autoimmune Paleo - so I h...

Thank you, Jean! And, yes, I've eliminated soy too. I've eliminated so many foods I used to eat that when I'm posting I sometimes miss one :-)

A little background: I'm just starting the Paleo Diet, although I've been "gluten free" a little over two weeks and dairy, egg, corn, shellfish, legume & peanut free for about 10 days. I started taking Immodium a few days ago which helps, but haven't taken it for a day and a half and t...

Thank you again everyone for your encouragement and suggestions!

Tex, Kristen & Gabes, Thank you all so much for your responses & encouragement. I have felt so alone in all of this b/c no one "gets" what this is like. I feel better just knowing that I have some understanding people to converse with as well as an abundance of good, reliable infor...

I am new to this forum and discovered it through Mr. Persky's book, which I've just started reading. I was diagnosed last month, but I have been having symptoms (chronic watery diarrhea, gas, cramps, fatigue) since the beginning of June and continue to have them. I have been on an elimination diet -...
