I always have what seems to be a "flare up" during my period...I never really thought about it but I suspect it may be related. I don't normally have period cramps, but I get cramping in my bowels...
I get headaches after my infusions, normally hits me a couple days after and lasts a couple of weeks (off and on..but really bad migraine type of headaches). It's happened the last 2 times I was...

Cait88, I read this and almost couldn't believe what I was reading. In the winter of '08 I had a very similar thing happen, it lasted about 3 months total and nothing since, I almost feel as though I...

I was diagnosed with a fatty liver (sounds so gross) after having blood tests show high liver enzymes. I am about 20lbs overweight. My GI said I should try to loose a little bit of weight, but...
