MICROSCOPIC COLITIS SUPPORT

Thank you so much, as always, for your guidance Tex. I hope the extra magnesium works for me.

Hello, I've had headaches most of my life, but in recent years, they have gotten worse and developed into migraines. I see a recommendation here is to take magnesium. I've been taking two Dr. Best magnesium daily for the last year. I'll up the dose to three per day to see if that helps. The heachach...

Hi! I've been in remission for approximately 1 1/2 years but have recently experienced mucus (thinking it may be the result of high job-related stress). I'm going to revert to my bland, base diet to see if that helps. Once I have this more under control, I'm interested in trying mushroom coffee. I'm...

Thank you Gabes for your speedy reply! I'll increase the VD and magnesium and go back to my staples. I appreciate your advice as always!

Hello, I’ve been in remission from MC for about 11 months. I’ve been very careful with my diet, eating much of the same foods repeatedly—while also trying new foods slowly (testing for three days). Most of the new food seems to work without issues. There’s been no D in the last 11 months—just occasi...

Hello! Thank you to everyone in this forum for contributing all the helpful information and answering endless questions. This forum has helped me tremendously to navigate through this very difficult time in my life, and I can’t imagine where I’d be without the advice offered here. I’ve been symptom ...

Thank you Tex and Marcia. I appreciate your answering the carbonation question. Sounds like I need to wait a bit longer before trying a bit of soda water.

Anne

Thank you Gabes and Marcia for your responses. I'll tread carefully with any potential alcohol. I am curious that soda water or tonic water was mentioned as possibly using with distrilled spirits; but since they're carbonated, would they not pose a potential issue?

Thank you,
Anne

Hello, I'm six months into remission with a very restrictive diet. I have a big event coming and would like to better understand what occassional alcohol may be considered safest. I've had some preservative-free/organic red wine without issue, but that's never available in restaurants. Some postings...

Hello! A family member just tested positive to Covid. In the past, I've taken Zinc, NAC, Vitamins C & D as preventative measures. Now having CC, I'm not sure if Zinc, NAC and Vit C will negatively affect my four-month remission status; or if it'll have adverse affects. I particularly would like ...

Hello! I was diagnosed with CC six months ago and have had a restricted diet since. I've been in remission now for six weeks--woo hoo! My Enterolab results showed moderate or significant reactivity to all foods tested on the A1+C1 panel. All results were over 100, even though I ate primarily GF for ...

Thank you Brandy. I stopped taking most vitamins when I was diagnosed with CC, including the Thorne Methyl Guard+. I'll start that up again. That's good input about having the starchy food later in the day, as I've been noticing the brain fog much more at work lately. I appreciate your input.

Hello, I recently received my Enterolab results and would greatly appreciate any feedback/advice you may be able to provide. Results: Fecal Anti-gliadin IgA 118 Units (Normal Range is less than 10 Units) Fecal Anti-casein (cow’s milk) IgA 188 Units (Normal Range is less than 10 Units) Fecal Anti-ova...

Thanks again Gabes. I appreciate your suggestions and insight, as it's crazy to try to sort through all this stuff in the beginning. I sure hope it gets better. I'll look into finding some good bones for the broth.

Thank you Gabes. I appreciate your response. I just ordered the Enterolab tests, and I'll go through the recovery section again. I'm unsure if I'm sensitive to beef (I've suspected it in the past), so I've been hesitant to do the beef broth--but I'm not sure what that leaves me with if chicken broth...
