MICROSCOPIC COLITIS SUPPORT

I take a Mag Supplement, including what’s in my multi-Vitamin. What is the max dose of Magnesium I should be taking? I was also taking Butyrate with Calcium and Magnesium but, ran out last week. I will also restart my Magnesium Oil spray on my legs daily. Is there a blood test for Magnesium levels? ...

I eat Spinach now like Popeye! Lol! Love it with a sprinkling of melted Mozzarella cheese. Im following all the right suggestions via this forum (Magnesium, Vitamin D and Gluten free) but, cannot put any weight back on and the chronic fatigue is starting to set in again, even with Insomnia, which ma...

I’ll have to check my Mag Supplement bottle for the ingredients your talking of, as you have to be a chemist to figure it all out % wise. I do take Mag supplements daily, along with Omega 3 fish oil and Vitamin D. I don’t get leg cramps but, do get severe back spasms and developed Insomnia through t...

I am on month 5 of Budesonide and now take it every 4th day, as I am having one to two solid bowel movements a day (mainly in the morning only.) Some bowel movements cause a slight constipated type of strain but are solid and formed but, there are times when I still feel I have to go again within th...

I was reading through some old posts and came across this: My thoughts on antihistamines are: If you need 'em, use 'um. If you don't need 'em, don't take 'em. Tex ( No disrespect, It kinda contradicts your earlier post to my "tapering of Budesonide" question? See Thread for questions and r...

Brandy, I started putting Extra Virgin Olive Oil on everything that my taste can tolerate it on. Read it helps to increase fat absorption, along with taking a Coconut Gel pill digestive enzyme supplement to also help with absorption and added enzymes. Breakfast is a slippery slope for an easy/quick ...

Can you supply the link to your free book you speak of?
Thanks

Thanks again for the info Tex. What is another test for Gluten sensitivities/Intolerance, other than a stool sample through Entrolab? Or possibly eating a small/large amount of wheat bread and seeing what happens? I’ve been maintaining Gluten free for several months now and my gums starting receding...

Hate to beat a dead horse, but any particular time of day to take an Antihistamine? I’ve always had a weird reaction to most allergy type medicines (when Ive actually had to use them), meaning instead of making me sleepy, drowsy and tired feeling, I get antsy and hyper wired! So logically it would b...

I eat gluten free oatmeal everyday for at least some source of needed fiber and a great filler until my next small meal and the gas isn’t everyday. Just some days and nights, long after Ive ingested any oatmeal. Other than lamb (which most of my local grocery stores don’t carry), any other fat alter...

What brand of an Antihistamine do you recommend? It’s weird, but my sneezing, watery eyes and constant nasal congestion have almost completely disappeared since starting Budesonide! Or possibly by reducing/eliminating Gluten and dairy that has made the difference? I still get tremendous morning stom...

I'm on my last month of Budesonide therapy for MC/LC diagnosis. 1 capsule of 3mg, once a day. I was curious of any side effects, what to expect, etc. I've talked to my GP and GI doctors about continuing for a fourth month, tapering to every other day, or every 3 days just to be safe. I'm having norm...

Interesting new study to read. References a lot of foods we (MC) are told not to eat, or have sensitivities to?

No jaw clicking, No bismuth ingested unless absolutely necessary. I’ve had mild Tinnitus for about 15 years, but never as loud and bothersome Daily since I started getting back spasms and nerve pain. I also eat turkey as a substitute/change whenever purchased. Lamb isn’t an easy option, unless I dri...

Thank you Tex and Erica, you to Gabes!
