No UTI or kidney infection at all. I do have some small amount of blood in my urine but they said it was a very very small amount. I do hope that the new supplement regimen helps with my gut issues. The bladder pain is new. My gastro did say that if they do not find anything at the Uro, that I shoul...

I am fortunate that my friend can purchase Designs for Health supplements. I have been taking 500mg of Magnesium every night. I am also taking MSM, Vit D 3, B-12 sub, and something for MTHFR.
Too early yet to see results but I am on top of my supplements

Vesicare and LC

**I am going to be asking my gastro about this tomorrow morning but I wanted to see if any of you had any thoughts on this medication.** I have bladder pain. I had a scope today and it showed that my bladder looks fine. The gastro had previously put me on Mybetriq for overactive bladder. That pill i...

I just read the list of histamine rich foods. I am really feeling discouraged. If I eliminate all the foods on that list, all the foods from the AIP list, and since my diabetes is bad...I have to eliminate the carbs not listed in the other two lists. That is not a lot of food. Where will I get my fa...

Thank you for that. My local gastro was saying it is sometimes hard to differentiate between MC, cdiff Colitis, and even UC. So I will send a sample in tomorrow morning and find out in the afternoon if I am still positive.

And I will start the research again on mast cell.

Bingo! I was reading here about mast cells. About two weeks ago, I made the stupid mistake of eating one slice of pizza. My nose started to run, my mouth had mucous, I was itchy and bloated. I learned my lesson big time. This evening, I taste tested a compliant (so I thought) home made chicken soup....

I use the now brand Ultra B-12 5000mcg. I was researching MCAD over two years ago because I just couldnt be that unlucky with all the sic...

Otherwise I take B-12 5000mcg under the tongue (taking that last 4 months), D3 10k iu 1x a day, and PB8 probiotic. I have also learned that I should be taking vitamin k2 with the D3...

I feel different then I did with the cdiff. Pain and nausea are different. Gastro said I look better. Before I was always pale and looked sick. I lost another 8lbs since I saw him 2 months ago.

Loose stools at least 3-4 times a day. It mostly happens from a reaction to something I eat. I am working the list of foods to see what works and what doesnt. Cramping and gotta go gotta go. I have been able to make it without accidents. There are times when I am on there forever. And still have to ...

C-Diff, FMT, and Colitis

I caught Cdiff exactly a year ago this week. I had a FMT more then a month ago by a specialist in Providence RI. A biopsy was done during the procedure and she said they found LC. She said the majority of my symptoms are probably because the LC but we have to wait and see if the C-diff is gone to pr...

I am still here. Navigating through all of this. Added more foods to the no list. I was getting really down about it. You stand there, hungry, but cannot find anything to eat. Then you have to make sure what you eat satietes you so your not dealing with the same dilemma hours later. I would become l...

My daughter used to make it a lot when she was plant based. Really good. You can google to find ways to make different flavors also.

I do have a local source for duck eggs. I will give them a try but not right now. I have gravitated towards almond and cashew milk the past few years. I am glad to read that I can still have them. I almost ate tomato today. It was on my fork (from kids plate of food) and I stopped myself and dropped...
