Abbreviation help?

Post by GrammyLou »

Hi all. I am new to this site...I have been having food issues for quite some time but docs always just wrote it off as IBS-D. A couple months ago I finally got a diagnosis of lymphocytic colitis, which I feel is probably a good diagnosis.

I am just finding my way through these forums and am having trouble with all the abbreviations. Is there a link somewhere that will explain them? I believe GF is gluten free, DF is dairy free, but so many others...? Any help?

Sure, sorry for the confusion. You'll find a list of often-used abbreviations here:

It is suspected that some of the hardest material known to science can be found in the skulls of GI specialists who insist that diet has nothing to do with the treatment of microscopic colitis.
