MICROSCOPIC COLITIS SUPPORT

Thanks Tex, I agree I have been bad with the diet. I am sure I am paying for it lately. The last few days I’ve had an angrier stomach and hemorrhoids off and on.

My Update on BAM/MC journey It's been a month since I was last here. Trying to figure out what causes microscopic colitis and whether my BAM is a result of it or whether the MC is caused by the Bam.

I guess I just wanted to hear from someone more experienced whether I was on the right track or not. I have not post...

I’ve always thought I had IBS and had mild flair-ups over the years. However, end of March I thought it was a normal one…take one Imodium as usual and next day would be a normal day. Didn’t happen.
