Yeah, I said it. Goofball. Wants me on biologics, mentioned MDX A LOT. And I mean a lot.
He also confirmed that I have an intolerance. I thought hospital doctors are supposed to be outside of the box. I'm done with climbing the drug mountain. If it worked successfully as they say it does, then we wouldn't be here.
Prescribed me steroid supp when I get symptoms. According to my last scope, there's no visible inflammation, but biopsies show it though.
I'm still working with local pharmacies with LDN.

There was a post about MDX that showed rather poor results in studies :( I would try it if the time were right but it sounds like you're in pretty good shape and it may be unnecessary. Do you use rectal meds?

5asa intolerant.

He gave me Anusol. Said I should use it when I see any symptoms.

I'm looking into taking liquid LDN. Maybe skip over the filler issues and all that. And I'm trying not to kill my bank - given I'm unemployed and family budget is tight.

Somedude, near Toronto.

NSSG, I was going to mention the bad results but he was a MDX cheerleader. It was odd watching aha.. He said I can go on it within a year or two, which doesn't help me now. Or anyone else.
