Both of you need to grow up and act like mature adults that are concerned about the topic at hand. BOTH of you should be banned from this forum, in my opinion....
Now you are attacking a forum member, Jenny McCarthy AND psychics. WOW, you are just a wealth of good info. a total asset to this forum.... Ummmm, Moderators???...
Nope, I absolutely did not directly contradict myself. ANYONE can go back and actually read my "controversial" post and see that eating toxic foods was ONE OF THREE REASONS OF WHY I *THINK* I I I I...
Excuse me, show me exactly where in my post that I claim that "all medical doctors, researchers, and governments are lying to us and want us to be sick?" The US GOV has already been PROVEN to have...
Sarah14, I don't care if this is my first post and it's your 15,000, that doesn't mean your information is more 'accurate or credible' than mine. I'm only giving opinions, anyway, so take them or...
@I'mCured... I agree with your last post immensely. And this whole conversation also applies to Jenny McCarthy's fight on vaccinations causing Autism. She claimed that she cured her young son of...
"Conspiracy theory" or "nut-job conspiracy theorists" are --the-- token terms used by the Media/GOV when you disagree with something they are propagating. FYI.... Please keep in mind that there are...
People, READ the post before replying... that is MY THEORY on why "I" have colitis.... not why YOU have it....
YES, the EVIL AMERICAN GOVERNMENT. If you think our Government is looking out for our "best interests," you are in for the shock of your life. Since you are obviously a newbie by the statement you...
@I'mCured.... I know they say that they don't have an answer on what causes Colitis... but here is my story and my theory on why I have it (that is always subject to change as I become more educated...
I read somewhere the exact opposite... So, someone with some more knowledge on this subject feel free to chime in. I read that it was better to get not only your probiotics from yogurt, or even...
Am I missing some threads or how come nobody ever mentions staying away from GMO foods???? Do people really not know what is going on with these?...
Well hmmmm, yeah usually during the pred course I've been going regularly in the morning, not at night, however, I'm supposed to be actually sleeping all night with this medication in me on my left...
What about giving myself a regular enema first, like a FLEET enema or something, and THEN waiting a few minutes to give myself the medicated enema? Good or bad idea?...
The number one desired gift in China right now is vitamins from the US. China makes practically everything else, and there is concern that locally bought vitamins might not be pure. It shouldn't be...
Ok, went to the GI yesterday and had a sigmoid. It shows my (left sided) colitis is spreading... more inflammation which is mostly at the rectum area, but not as 'severe' as my Dr. was expecting....
I'm going in on Monday so I will update you and let you know what he plans on doing with me. It's just so depressing. I was doing GREAT, I mean GREAT for the past month or so, and then all of the...
When you say you relapsed, do you mean while you were ON the pred at a certain mg? And then you went back up to 40mg during your course? The reason why I ask is because I started out on 40mg pred...
I started off on 40 mg of Prednisone and have been tapering every week by 5 mg EXCEPT last week. I tapered down to 15mg and started having Diarrhea, bloating, urgency, but no blood. I called the Dr....
Me too with LIALDA, 2 a day, every day. I like them better than the ASACOL or the generic crap I was getting from India. Down to 20mg a day with the Prednisone. My pred course IS working and I am SO...
+1 Subdued for some reason I had you confused with a Moderator on here I like, and since I like your posts you came to mind when I was posting in the now locked thread.(To the Mods.He's not a Dr...
If I found a cure for UC you bet your sweet pants I would be charging money for it! Until this world gets out of the materialistic, degenerate black hole of spiritual decline we are in, we have to...
The real absinthe, or the Americanized version? I ordered a bottle from France a while ago that was the original recipe this chemist from New Orleans recreated from a bottle he found at a vintage...
That is truly depressing for me because I love ALL that stuff, love the vinegar... it's like no sugar AND no vinegar is too much for me to handle. What about your Florastor situation? Can you...
That's good to know, Jordan's book was the very first book I ever got when I was diagnosed back in 2005. He came across to me as someone who had enough money to try everything out there available,...
Yes, I have joint pain when flaring in my knees especially. Isn't the herb BOSWELLIA supposed to be helpful for this? Other than that, you might just have to take a Tylenol or something stronger if...
I once had an explosion of the most toxic smelling gas and stool that came out and I was in a public place. I could hear the employees complaining outside the bathroom door about the sceptic system...
UCParent, I just recently started a series of Prednisone at 40mg after a year and three months of bleeding every single day. Since taking the prednisone, it's been maybe two weeks now, I have good...
I had ongoing UC symptoms when I got pregnant and about ohhhhh 3-4 months into it and went into remission while being pregnant. My GI said that it's common for that to happen, but can also go the the...
Quincy, I see and read on almost all your posts that you are huge fan of rectal meds, and I am not against them, but there's other natural ways of relieving the constipation we should probably try...
I've never been on Remicade, but I have had definite on and off horrible knee joint pain that comes and goes, floaters in my eye sight that I have to wait to disappear and the whole low-grade fever...
Someone told me that coconut water was better than any sports drink for replacing electrolytes. Maybe try googling it......
Johnnie--> Those are good questions that I do not know the answer to, but I am going to find out this week if I am in fact having constipation issues along with the D as soon as my regular GI...
Again, NOT trying to sell it, just seeing if anyone else was using it and what their opinions were. Thanks!...
A friend of mine, who is pretty intuitive if you believe in that kind of stuff, I do, said that he keeps thinking I need minerals. Well, I was taking some Magnesium and Calcium, but he was reminding...
Most of my BMs for the past year have been basically like all blood and mucus and small blood clots, with small, next to nothing "pieces" in the toilet of stool, and you wonder and wonder if you are...
Bosco, give me an email address and I will talk to you about Drs. in the Cleveland area. UPDATE, still haven't found out yet what my GI says about the CAT scan, he has to look at it and get back to...
LOL, not really funny, but so true... Hopefully they will find a way to rename it to make it sound more "politically correct" that it'll sound a little better for the masses approval, kinda like...
I was just talking about this D and Constipation thing going on with me (possibly) check the thread entitled, "Learned Something New Yesterday About My Colitis Symptoms" it should be on page one or...
If you really want to have some evil fun, start acting frisky with your wife and tell her you're going to 'change into something more comfortable' and come out wearing nothing but a pair of men's...
No darn it, I forgot! When I call on Monday to check in about the Prednisone, I will ask him about the Rowasa. Thanks for reminding me....
Ok, I just got back from my GI today. He does NOT think that I am constipated and that the Dr. at the ER in the hospital misread the CAT SCAN, so he's waiting on the copy of the CAT SCAN to show up...
SaraLee, Thank you very much for sharing the story on the Opium. I believe you 100% that it worked for you and now I have something to keep in the back of my mind if I find no relief myself. I also...
SaraLee, Does the Opium make you feel like you're on drugs? Does it make you tired, loopy, surreal, relaxed, what exactly does it do to you and make you feel like? Can you tell you're on it? Are you...
I believe he did say he saw some 'thickening' in my CAT scan. This could be the reason! My Dr. better be on his mental best on Tuesday because he's going to get hit with a ton of questions, lol....
Good to know, Quincy, I will bring up the rectal meds and the Rowasa, (which I am unfamiliar with) to my GI on Tuesday. I've had only a little experience with the enemas, will definitely need some...
They did a CAT scan on me to see what was going on in my abdomen since I was complaining about lower abdominal pain. That's how he saw the amount of stool. As far as my D and my bowel movements,...
It is the strangest thing to me as well. I have been having plenty of bloody D, mucus, and puddles of 'whatever' at the bottom of my toilet, but the Dr. said the reason why I was having lower...
Is there a limit to how many enemas you are supposed to do a day, or week when you have UC? I was told by someone on here to try the Vitamin E enemas to stop the bleeding. Do you suggest those, or...
You would think they would put this info. out readily available to warn people like, "hey people, warning! we used this, this and this to induce colitis in lab mice and it worked, might not want to...
