Update, I started LDN (oral with lactose free filler) and after one month, my fecal calprotectin level went from 1500+ down to 18!!! In ONE month! The only thing I did differently was taking one extra Lialda a few times and taking my cimzia one shot every two weeks rather than both shots on the same day.
I am only taking .50 mg in the morning.

I find these results pretty amazing!

awesome! Did you have the high fecal calprotectin while only on the Cizmia? Do you think it was the LDN that brought it down? Glad to hear you are doing well!

Wow! I am also interested if you thought it was the LDN!

I was on Cimzia for 4 months with the high Fecal calprotectin level and have fecal calprotectin test results to prove it. I had tests run every month since being diagnosed with the c-diff in Dec. I felt immensely better on day 3 of LDN so I am almost positive it was the ldn that brought down my inflammation. Is it possible the cimzia just happened to kick in at that exact time...maybe but I doubt that happened. I am convinced it is the ldn. Hopefully it will last and I won't become immune to it.
