MICROSCOPIC COLITIS SUPPORT

Hi Joe, I started the Mestinon last night and made it through the night without issues, so, good start. Odd, but I've had double vision for 20 years, and I was only given more and more prisms to correct it somewhat. It got to the point even prisms did not correct it as it should, so I complained at ...

Hi Joe, Thank you, thank you, for your information. I didn't know that about Mestinon. My D has been in check for a while now, except this news of MG must have triggered this flare. I start the Mestinon tonight, and I will stay home tomorrow, just in case. I'm reading all I can about this disease, a...

Thank you Tex. I will start taking the medicine tonight. I got scared when I started reading several patient stories and saw pictures on You Tube. I am trying to be optimistic, although, D came back, I'm sure due to stress, but I'm hoping it will go away. I keep asking myself - what are the odds of ...

I'm overwhelmed and trying to find out if the drug Mestinon (pyridostigmine) is gluten free. I couldn't find it on the internet, but my mind is not thinking straight from this news. So, if anyone knows if it is gluten free, thank you. I know nothing about this disease, but trying to take in all the ...

Gabes, I had not thought about malabsorption of fats, and if that is the reason, I wouldn't know how to eliminate that problem. But, I know I don't have rapid transit time, at least, ever since D went away and C came about. That's why I started taking magnesium. I do try and eat lots of walnuts/peca...

Is there a reason a person would have floating BM's. They used to sink, but not so anymore. They are formed, as I only have D now whenever I get glutened, which was recently from one of our favorite restaurants. Is it a bad thing to have floating BM's? I am somewhat constipated, but take as much Mag...

Oh, Gabes, thank you for all the interesting reading about thermal imaging. I definitely will be doing that but not until September when we visit our daughter and son in law. Hubby has 3 fractured vertebrae, healed somewhat, however, his back has been a problem since. He also has been in remission f...

My husband and I are thinking about getting a full body thermal imaging, because our daughter and son in law did, and he found out he had a blocked artery which was causing his fatigue and numbness of his hands and feet. He is 56 years old, strong and an outdoor person. He also had huge sinus issues...

Tex, You are surrounded by love, prayers, and many healthy wishes. Big Hugs,

Thanks Vanessa, I will check into the site. I feel so much better having learned more about how magnesium works for us, and the liquid mag, I'm guessing, would work quite well.

I've taken to Tex's PC book like glue! It's such a huge help.

Much appreciated.

Tex, I think the magnesium citrate is starting to work, and I am happy. Knowledge is a beautiful thing. I don't know where you get your expertise from, but I'm grateful. I had forgotten about your ileum/colon surgery and that you can't eat veggies. I'm sure you had to learn about the magnesium defic...

Tex, I actually had your PC book sitting on my night table, ready to read, but I was already into another book I wanted to finish, but after reading your post, I dropped everything and read your book. It was easy to understand and fast reading, and I'm glad I dropped everything and read it. So infor...

My D issues have been gone for a few years now, luckily, but now I'm very constipated, and everything I do doesn't seem to work. I already take magnesium citrate, about 400 mg daily and have for a long time now, plus Metamucil for a long time which seems to have quit working. I eat oatmeal practical...

Marcia, I have Lyme Disease and was on heavy doses of abx for 18 months (This started in 2002). It was six months before I officially was diagnosed with Lyme. By then, it had gotten so much worse. Finally, I found a LLMD (Lyme literate doctor) in MO, who had me test with Igenex, a company that has a...

Hi Alice, I also order supplements from Vitacost, as I find their prices are better than most. The red yeast rice is so terribly expensive, but I'm going to try it. I'm so glad it is working for you and your husband and I hope it works for me as well. The bottle states one serving is one pill which ...
