MICROSCOPIC COLITIS SUPPORT

I wish I had your instincts Tex! It would have saved me a lot of grief. Deb, we actually planted this vine on purpose years ago. It turns a beautiful red in the fall. It volunteers all over our property now-I guess from wind and birds. I see it growing around our little town in yards, on ditch banks...

Nancy, I'm sorry to read about your diagnosis, but I am so happy for you that things have gone so well. I wish you a continued, successful recovery and a healthy life.
JoAnn

Hi Deb, I don't know if this will help you, but earlier this summer I was working in my yard and pulling out a vine that has been on our property for years. I never reacted to it in the past so it didn't occur to me to take extra precautions. I did have on gloves during the work. That night, I start...

Hi Donna, I guess we'll learn about this together. The only reason I became aware of this is because of some old threads on the board: http://www.perskyfarms.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=18792 http://www.perskyfarms.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=19728 For some reason, I felt like I needed to check into t...

Hi Gabes, I'm off to work, but thought I would specifically mention that my test showed a homozygous mthfr a1298c mutation in case that helps with your info. Thanks again for your help, JoAnn

Hi Gabes, I just saw this so sorry about the late response. I haven't even had time to explore the ramifications of having this MTHFR mutation. I found out about this during a very busy time in July when I got the 23andme dna tests back and ran them through the sites Marliss recommended for health i...

Thank you so much for remembering me! We went to the Salt Lake County Fair Friday night with son and grandkids, then to Bluffdale Town Days celebration (our little town) on Saturday, family took me to the movies Sat. night, and then made Sunday dinner for me yesterday, so I have done a lot of celebr...

Thanks to all of you! Everyone of you inspire me, the veterans who were with me in the beginning and the newbies who have come along. I remember how terrified I was during that first year and feeling so hopeless. Everyone has to kind of find their own way through this with a lot of trial and error a...

Marliss, I just saw this. I'm rather sporatic on the board these days. I am so sorry for your loss, and so sorry you have to cope with some medical issues on top of it. I've been thinking about you, too. When things are better for you and I get a little more time, I would like to run some things by ...

Hi Joe, I've been AWOL from the board for awhile and had no idea you have been going through so much. I'm glad you're home and hope things will only get better for you. You have always been a warrior and an inspiration to all of us here. I'm glad you have your Nurse Nestle to help you get through th...

Hi Tex and family, I'm checking in to report the results of the colonoscopy I had 2 weeks ago. Six years ago I was in the nightmare of undiagnosed MC and my life seemed over. The colonoscopy I had then showed MC and I was treated with Asacol which only worsened it. I am a teacher and had to take a 1...

I just want to tell all of you how much I love you and wish I could see you and throw my arms around you! I vanished out of town after that post and just returned and what a joy to read all these posts. Some of you are my dear old friends that got me through the rough times. Some of you I met along ...

Hi Tex and all of my family here, I can't remember when I posted last. I just had to take a minute and thank everyone here for changing my life and being the answer to desperate prayers in 2008. I've been in remission since 2010 I think, all due to the advice and hand holding that I received here. I...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TEX! You're my hero-I don't know what my life would be like if I hadn't found you and the board.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY POLLY!!!!! Thanks for all the help and support over the years!
