OMG!!! I finally had a perfect poop two days in a row! It has been months and months...I can't believe it! I have been on a very limited diet with some success, meaning that I have not had horrible watery D but have been having urgent very soft unformed poops in the morning and there is no time to hesitate. I have been living on turkey and chicken cooked simply, rice, organic rice cakes and crackers all gluten free. I also made my own chicken bone broth which I froze in small batches so I could use them easily as a broth drink or in foods. I have eaten no dairy or raw veggies and I let go of fruit all together. I eat only a few veggies and they are very well cooked and no lettuce. The last thing that was hiding in my food was soy in my Veginaise. I found a Veginaise whith avocao oil (yum!) and no soy. I also have avocado and sunflower butter in my regime. I make my own nut free coconut flour bread with very few additives. I found the nut breads were difficult for me to digest....at least until I'm better healed. Even with my limited diet I still was far from well...continued to have very low energy, worrying about the one bathroom we have. I even bought a camp toilet to hide in the basement if I couldn't wait for the bathroom. This decision was made after an accident I won't go into We only have one bathroom and it was highly stressful when my husband was taking a long time. So I was beginning to think that even with my limited food choices that I was never going to have my digestion back. I have also lost 15lbs, even getting some hair loss from having such poor absorbtion of nutrients. Then yesterday I went into the bathroom without any expectation and it happened....ta da!!!! A perfect poop!!!!! and again today!!! I fully expect things to go up and down but hope I am finally on the right track to healing. Don't give up everyone...fingers crossed for good poops for all

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.
Thanks for the support :) it took a long time to get to this point.....I will take my healing slow and well protected :)
