Arlene, I know exactly what you mean about "tentative." I am doing well enough now that my system no longer feel tentative, and have decided to try adding some fiber back into my diet. So my system is back feeling tentative about that.

I just voted in the carefully avoiding gluten, dairy, and soy, and in remission category.

I knew you all would know! So nice not to have to TRY to explain it.MBombardier wrote:I just voted in the carefully avoiding gluten, dairy, and soy, and in remission category.

Tex, should there be a follow-up pole? Say 6 or more month follow-up? That would be interesting.

Progress, not perfection.
Progress, not perfection.
I'm not sure that the outcome would change much, because as new members continue to join, many/most of those who have been here for a while, especially if they have managed to reach remission, tend to drift away, and stop coming back.

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.
TEX--your oats
how did you find out about the oats allergy specifically what you mentioned in your post
Hi,
I did an oat challenge, using oat cereal certified to be wheat free. The post at the following link describes how I went about it, and it contains my report on the results, and it also contains links to progress reports that I posted along the way. As I recall, the primary symptoms were bloating and diarrhea, but any other symptoms, (joint aches, body aches headaches, migraines, etc.), were somewhat minor. Probably the reason why other symptoms weren't more serious, is because I didn't continue to eat it long enough to develop the leaky gut syndrome. If I had continued to eat it, I might have eventually had more problems with other symptoms, as well.

And here's one more post that I made about a week later, when I tried oats one more time, just to verify that I was definitely sensitive to it:

P. S. Note that in the first link that is listed in the first article that I linked to above, I posted that, "the current world standard for gluten-free certification, (at 200 ppm)". That was written 4 years ago, and since then, the world standard for gluten-free certification has been lowered to 20 ppm, as controlled by the Codex Alimentarius.
