UPDATE ON ASACOL REDUCTION

Post by annie oakley »

Well. I am going into the 6th week with no Asacol. I have pretty much stayed on the diet I have. I have cut down on Chocolate and Ice Cream. But other than that not much change. I haven't taken any Ultram either....don't have any but haven't needed it. So I am keeping the old :xfingers: crossed...and it may be premature to celebrate because as we all know with this desease. we can have setbacks at ANY time...right? but here goes :band: Love Oma
May I be more compassionate and loving than yeterday*and be able to spot the idiots in advance

Lou is right....It's Muscle. Muscle is a good thing at our ages Barb. It will keep you mobile longer. Strengthen the muscles and everything gets a little better....not to mention the Chi. Before I meditate I always do a breathing excerise of breathing in the Life force and exhaling the negative. Also before prayer. So keep up the muscle you are small enough :barbell: to handle it.
Yes it's great not to take the Asacol, hopefully it will continue to be the case. :xfingers: Love Oma
