Downloaded now. It will be a pleasure to read it NOT panicking in a hotel room at 2 am!

Hi, newbie here. First post.

Diagnosed with Microscopic Lymphocytic Colitis a month ago after a particularly nasty parasitic infection (Cryptosporidium).

I ordered this book and just finished it, read it cover to cover. It has been tremendously informative and valuable and will always be handy as a reference book as I make the adjustments needed in my life to manage this disease.

Thank you Tex. For this book and for all you do for those who suffer with MC. We sincerely appreciate it!

Hi,

Welcome to the forum. You sound like a self -starter and you seem motivated, so I'm confident that you will be able to control this disease.

Thank you for the kind words, and best of luck on your journey during recovery. Again, welcome aboard, and please feel free to ask anything.

Tex

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.

I have been a reading fool over the weekend since I rec'd my copy on Friday....

Thank you Tex, I'm learning a thing or two and I'm noticing really good information to keep sharing with the general public (aka my Family).

You really do a thorough job when writing :wink:
Much appreciated
