MICROSCOPIC COLITIS SUPPORT

That makes a lot of sense! I never thought about that before. I can't even find duck eggs near me. How do I know what chicken eggs are fed when I buy them?

Chris- how interesting! My reaction was mild as well. When I would eat chicken eggs I would generally be fine if they were scrambled and not eaten everyday. But if I fried the egg forget it. I'm glad you like the duck eggs. I am going to go to my local whole foods and see if they have them. Glad you...

Hi everyone, Has anyone tried duck eggs? According to the blood test I had, I reacted to chicken eggs. But who knows if that is even accurate. I am wondering if I would react to duck eggs as well? I read that they are easier to digest. Does anyone know about this? Would the proteins be different? Th...

Good to know! Thanks Tex!

Hi everyone! I received my bloodwork back from my GI. I am very deficient in Vitamin D3 and need to take a supplement. I know most of you already do that so I am wondering what the best brands are out there that are free of the major allergens? I need 1000 IU. Hopefully this will help my terrible jo...

Sorry this took me to long to respond to. Tex---my joint pain is always symmetrical and gets worse as the day goes on. I had blood work done yesterday so we will see what the results say. Is RA common with MC? I am thinking of eliminating nightshades for awhile and see how I do. I agree with everyon...

Hi everyone! I am having the worst joint pain I have ever had in my life. I cannot even begin to tell you how frustrated i am being that I am only 22 years old and I am having difficulty walking up the stairs While I attribute this most likely to MC, I question also whether I have either a vitamin d...

Hi everyone, it has been awhile since I last posted. Hope everybody is feeling well! I looked in the archives about this topic already but didn't find too much. Has anyone had good luck with a vegan diet? I am interested in trying something new. Meat feels so heavy for me to digest even chicken or t...

Good to know! I think I will give it a try tomorrow :)

Is anyone able to tolerate decaf coffee? I definitely can't drink regular coffee and even caffeinated teas bother me. I used to drink decaf coffee but it was with dairy long before being diagnosed so if it bothered me in the past it was probably the milk. I am interested in trying it with almond mil...

Hi Gabes, Yes and no. I actually felt worse doing this diet. I figured out that I was eating too much fiber. I cut back on the fruit and vegetables and am eating more carbs. That is helping. I have been testing out some of the foods I reacted to on the blood test and I actually feel better since rei...

Thanks Jari, good article. I don't eat anything with preservatives so I think a cup of cereal should be okay.

Does anyone know if BHT is rice chex is safe for us? I used to eat the plain kind all the time.
