MICROSCOPIC COLITIS SUPPORT

I am 37, I knew something was wrong due to my teeth were becoming brittle and questioned the dentist and followed up with my doctor. Due to what they say was malnutrition, from being undiagnosed with cc and being on steroids for over a year, I was sent for a dexa scan, and I do have osteopenia in th...

Yes, Glad you could enlighten me with more info, criminal for sure, especially for those who can barely function without it, I guess before now all people could do was suffer, and pray. Healthcare in the US is in many forms a cosmetic industry, I know there are people trying to fix that but unfortun...

I work in a pharmacy(in Florida), and a couple of the pharmacists are Indian, they said part of the problem with this country is all the lawsuits. In India, if you take a prescription, the risk of consumption is yours. You weigh the risk of whether to take the drug or not, nobody forces you so there...

Thanks Such a valuable wealth of knowledge contained in opinions and experiences, I am grateful to everybody that shares.

Sara,
Hope you have a delightful trip. A change of environment sounds so refreshing, and exciting!

day 11, on entocort, the first 3 months of entocort, I could pretty much eat anything. this round is frustrating, the bouts with d, have slowed to 1-2 times a day, which is a great relief, I have tried to take all the wheat products out of my diet, for the past week and buying gf products. I am sure...

Tex, glad to hear you were able to deduce what was causing your discomfort. This is all interesting to me as my son has been diagnosed with high blood pressure and cholesterol, he is only 14, but predisposed on both sides of the family tree. They recently had an ekg, echocardiogram and echo of the k...

Take a nice long break and find some ways to de-stress. Not sure what you like, but I hope you can find something soothing. Sleeping in sounds good, maybe some lavender candles or such to calm the senses.

Carol

So glad to hear you are recovering!
