MICROSCOPIC COLITIS SUPPORT

Jari and Erica, Thanks so much for your feedback. I am on my 6th day of only 2 #5 BMs/day, so I'm feeling more encouraged. I just got a summary of my GI panel tests (not Enterolab some other lab tests my NP ordered) and I'm sensitive to gluten (which I already knew), Dairy (before I was just lactose...

Erica, Jari, and Chris,
Thanks so much for your input/feedback. Do any of you have trouble with almond butter?
The ingredients list Palm Oil and I think I read on here that some people cannot tolerate that.
Thanks for your continued support. This is a very trying time for me!

Hi All, I'm on a strict elimination diet and wondering if the MaraNatha No Stir Coconut Almond Butter that I was eating on rice cakes is what has been causing my WD for the past 2 weeks. Anyone else have a sensitivity to nut butters? Please weigh in. Here's what I've been eating the past 5 days and ...

Hi Tex,
Thanks so much for your response and helpful links. I forgot to mention in my last post that I also read and continue to re-read your book on MC and find it informative, well written, and full of hope!

How do you delete a double entry post?
Thanks,

Hi, Cristina here. I was diagnosed with LC this past October, 2016 after suffering from off and on explosive WD since December, 2014, when 30 minutes after eating some sushi, which didn't taste right I was on the toilet with explosive WD. My GI, as usual, put me on Pepto tablets 3x/day for 6 weeks d...

Hi Tex, Thanks so much for your quick response. I tend to agree with you regarding combining food groups. For lunch I had a small portion of quinoa and mashed yams and didn't get any negative reaction, Yay!!! Hopefully I'm on the right path of my healing journey. Not having explosive D is such a rel...

Hi Tex, I'm reading your book "Microscopic Colitis" in the Kindle format and was wondering if you could help me with a question. I've been reading a lot on this forum as well as other Internet sites and the SCD diet book and remember that combining certain types of foods together impedes p...

Thanks Tex! Just ordered your book too. I'm learning so much.

Thanks Brandy, Gabes Ryan and Tex for your helpful responses. I will definitely check out other runners posts and continue to read others on this site. I think for the time being I will follow a very restricted diet and continue taking the Pepto Bismol tablets as this combination seems to be relievi...

Thanks Tex! I thought homeopathic remedies were made from naturally occurring elements. Are the chemicals you mention elements on the Periodic Table or compounds? I agree that anything with laxative effects would be contraindicated in my condition. I have been so frustrated dealing with this limitin...

Hi all forum members, I just joined this forum and have read many entries, WOW. What a resource this is! I was recently diagnosed with MC after a colonoscopy that included biopsies since I have been dealing with explosive D and other symptoms since 12/21/2015. That day I ate at 2 pieces of sushi and...
