MICROSCOPIC COLITIS SUPPORT

Kim, Welcome. I'm one of those who took Dr. Fine's tests and controls their symptoms by diet alone. I was tested for gluten and diary initially and then tested later for soy, yeast and eggs. So I eliminated those from my diet. But later I had a really bad flare up and thought it might be due to corn...

All,
Just checking in to say hi. Nothing new to report. Busy working all the time, as usually. But I love my job and the people I work with which makes all the difference. Been fairly healthy with only a few minor flareups that resolved themselves without medication. Hope everyone is well and happy.

Hi All, Every time I plan something for Thanksgiving it goes terribly wrong so I'm not planning anything. I'll cook for myself. If the mood strikes me and nothing bizarre has happened, I'll go over to my sister's. Oh, and I always watch the Lions game on TV and sometimes the Thanksgiving Day Parade ...

Becky, Welcome to the group.

An what works for a while, may not keep working. I'm not trying to make you depressed, I'm just ...

Andrew,
I'm so very sorry about your puppy. I sincerely hope that things get better. I know how very hard it is when your pets are sick. I just went through this myself. Do they have any clue as to why he keeps having these infections?

Matthew,

Polly,
That's interesting. I had considered at one time that Cipro may have triggered my MC. My symptoms began after 2 courses in a row of antibiotic, the last being Cipro. Of course, it also could have been 5 years of chronic stress taking care of my mother.

Katy,
Better times are ahead!

Has anyone heard from Jean? I've been off the board all summer so I don't know if she's been heard from or not.

Jill,

Barbara,
I'm so sorry you SIL is stressing you out so much. Families are such pains in the ass. Don't let her get to you. Your brother obviously loved you and had your best interest at heart. He sounds like he was a very special person. Cherish his memory.
