I am glad I found this post! I was just told I have a fungal infection- and I am miserable. I thought it was a bad case of hemmies, but my usual meds weren't helping. I have a cream, and the doctor...
I don't know about B12, I know vitamin E taken before bed can cause nightmares. I take Xanax for emergency panic attacks that happen at night. When I fall asleep, I have the CRAZIEST dreams! Very...
oh yeah...I am queezy all the time. I am supposed to eat a lot of little meals all day but sometimes even if I force myself and take my stomach meds sometimes it stays. Like today I took my pill and...
if ya can't talk about it here where can ya?...
right now I am staying away from most raw fruit. My doctor has told me melon is ok. I have been eating a lot of melon and have had no problem. My brother in law who has Crohn's has been saying to me,...
You should use medicated wiped Prep H & Tucks make them. If you have a fissure or tearing using regular toilet paper will make it worse & spread infection. Keeping the area very clean is important....
I went to see a very prominent doctor in NYC (my boss paid, thank God) He is a nutritional MD. They tested me for EVERY allergy out there. I am allergic to nothing. So, bringing in foods will be very...
My drinking escalated when I was diagnosed with UC. I found myself being felled by my medications, not only the UC drugs but the anti depressant/anxiety drugs I was on. I had a problem...every doctor...
I have always been over weight. I was at my heaviest when my UC came to a head. I have since dropped from a women's size 20 to a women's size 14/16 since September....
I had similar symptoms (I have UC) it turned out to be an intestinal infection. Go to a GI, make sure they test your poop (yes its gross to collect) but its worth it if they can diagnose what is...
The reason I was dissatisfied with my GI doctor was because it always takes 2-3 days to call me back, her receptionist hardly picks up the phone and when she does her accent is so thick I can hardly...
OK DUH, the blonde here just had a serious blonde moment!! My mother has been experimenting with recipies from this book. I don't have time to cook because I work long hours. So she travels in from...
I am currently firing my GI and making an appointment with Dr. Moishe Rubin. He's also on the CCFA doctor's list. My brother in law had terrible colitis in his late 20's and he made the trek to NY to...
Can you post info on the diet to me? I've never heard of it...I have been reading Breaking the Vicious Cycle though......
First of all- you must stop the Diet Coke. The caffine, artifical sweetner & carbonation are REALLY not good for the colitis. I have been on Lialda since November, and after I recovered from an...
Haldi is GREAT! The green tea is good, I found the berry flavor gross. Its cheaper to order cases on the website. I have turned others onto it because its full of anti oxidents as well. If you go to...
OH My! A day before my period I get so sick, sweats, shaky...it sucks. My next gyno appointment I am going to have my hormone levels checked. Dk...
I have been taking florstore and its doing ok for me...
I read that tumerac (main spice in curry) is good for the colon. Look it up!...
Its rough, I am newly diagnosed and I am basically afraid to eat. I had an intestinal infection for most of December. I was going every 1/2 hour, mostly liquid and I was loosing a lot of my good...
I was diagnosed this November and have been on it since the end of November. I take 2 a day (so much for the 1 a day pill) I have no side effects. However, most of December I was battling an...
