Flare while on Budesonide?

Hi Everyone, I was diagnosed with collagenous colitis in June and having been on 9mg (I think!) Budesonide since. I've been keeping a pretty mild diet, but went crazy with falafel and cheese a few days ago... and I'm not sure it didn't trigger something. Totally fatigued, bloated, gassy and some D (...

Thanks for the insights. I definitely have fatigue, although I don't think the fatigue nor any brain fog comes close to what I had when I was ill with celiac (although that was in the throes of undergrad/single motherhood so maybe it was just more noticeable then!).

Thanks so much, Tex. I have definitely noticed dairy, eggs and corn to be problems. I haven't noticed soy to be so hopefully it's not (because I adore soy sauce on all my white rice, haha!). I'll start keeping better track. I am so grateful for all these tips!!! I had no idea about sugar! Is there a...

Intro and advice for newbie...? :)

Hi all, after three months of lots of watery D I finally had a scope yesterday. We had already suspected MC and although we don't have the biopsy results yet, it appeared MC is probably the correct diagnosis. I was diagnosed with celiac 9 years ago. Forum looks amazing!
