Welcome, Delanie!
I was diagnosed with LC in June, 2011 from a colonoscopy where they took biopsies, although my symptoms started in August of 2010. I am GF/DF/SF, and found a lot of relief from the changes I've made in my diet. At my worst, I was going between 25 to 30 times a day. I still go once after each meal, but that is great considering where I was at. I chose to use diet alone, so I believe that it does take longer. I am no longer fatigued like I was, and no longer have to "map out" bathrooms everywhere I go. Before the diet change and improvements I was only going out when I had to. I did continue to work throughout all of this, but was fortunate to have a bathroom about 15 feet from my desk.
As everyone else is saying, please continue to come here and ask all the questions you want. There is a wealth of information here.
