Hi all, It's been a while since I've dipped in to the forum here, but logged back in today to see some old posts that I commented on about Albert Snow and his protocol removed (please do not give...
What is good brand to to try? Preferably one you could get on Amazon or at a local health food store....
imagardener - I'm not sure which ingredients I may be allergic to on the bottle but I have had issues with other natural shampoos in the past. Like brain fog and other things. I may have to go back...
Yeah, I think this is just unrelated. Now I feel like a weirdo for even asking. Thanks for responding and helping out....
Hey all, Sort of a weird topic. I'm curious if anyone else has experienced an uptick in symptoms after using a particular soap, body wash, or shampoo/conditioner product. I've recently switched...
Hey all, I've read through all the long threads on FMT's and everyone's techniques and results. There's a lot about protocol and celebrating success (which is great), but not a lot detail about the...
Hey Sherry, I think we are from the same area. I know of some places in the burbs of Detroit that I've gotten bones from for broth. I'm not sure if emails are posted anywhere on the forum, but I can...
Hi UC_Hater, I'm in the process of gathering more information so I can attempt a FMT some time this month. I searched through a few forum postings of yours (and others) but can't seem to find the...
Gary: Thanks for the insight and advice. I've tried the VSL probiotic in the last week and ended up stopping after about 5 days. I was feeling awfully weird (headaches, increased pain in my left...
garylouisville - well, I think you were right. I am almost on day three of trying slippery elm and I think it is making my digestion worse. I figured it might not work, but I didn't know it would...
Red_34 - Awesome. It's nice to meet a fellow Metro Detroiter. I was seeing a guy named Dr. Tent for a little while who also pinpointed a gall bladder issue related to my symptoms. I took supplements...
Red_34 - Thanks. Has your friend has any success with his/her colitis symptoms seeing Dr. Kavieff? He's about 20 minutes away so it would be close to check him out....
Red_34 - I live in metro Detroit. What is the naturopaths name? I'm up for trying something new. I'll be sure check out the Nopal information. Thanks so much....
juststud - yeah, I'm aware that it equals inflammation. I've had this for around 12 years. it's mild inflammation but still inflammation nonetheless which is really frustrating. I went completely...
Hello all, For the past 6 months or so I've been going to the bathroom once a day, the stools are formed, but they are either thin or not big enough to be considered normal. Every now and then there...
hey therearemiracles. Glad things are going well for you. I stumbled across an old thread where you were taking Standard Process stuff and seeing a naturopath. I'm taking a similar approach now and...
I'm resurrecting this thread. I'm curious how you are still doing greenuc. It's been about a year since I've seen Dr. Tent (on and off). I've had moderate success. I'm still in semi-remission and...
Hey greenuc (and anyone else once following this thread). How is everything still going on Dr. Tent's program? I'm headed in to the fourth month on it and have had a lot of success. Still waiting to...
Ha. I guess I am putting the cart before the horse here. I really just want to get better (like everyone on this forum) and get a little hasty sometimes dreaming of that blue ribbon turd. Have you...
Hey all, I've been pretty close to having zero symptoms for a few months. The last one I can't seem to shake is semi-formed, sort of loose stools. I'm hoping that a perfect poop is just around the...
I added chlorophyll complex as well (he didn't have me add it, but I knew it was good for UC), but sounds like you are already on it. Outside of that, I think you are already doing everything I was...
green uc - I can't seem to get a perfect poo using this program just yet. Has he put you on any other supplements. Right now beyond the regimen regimen of okra, prosynbiotic, and gallbladder stuff...
Hey chicago, If you are interested in the program I would honestly get a hold of Dr. Tent's office. I know he has mentioned doing skype appointments before and he would be able to offer up a program...
greenuc - how are things still going on Dr. Tent's program? I am about a month and a half in to taking the supplements and am probably experiencing 50% improvement in symptoms. He now added a...
Sorry to bother you again, greenuc. Did your symptoms ever fluxuate while taking the supplements? I seem to have fairly good days and then a few that go backwards. I'm worried about getting things...
It took about a week to see 80% improvement of UC symptoms, ymmv. After two weeks I started reducing my other supplements and medicines (still maintaining 2 Lialda per day for now). I think the...
It's funny that I stumbled across this posting. I live in Michigan and went to see him just about a week ago. I am also being treated for a gallbladder issue (which has in turn caused intestinal...
quincy, I was on Asacol about 8 years ago when I had my initial flare. My doc tried it again this September (HD this time...3 pills, 3 times daily) but it also made things worse. I've been off pred...
I want to apologize for my tone in the last post. It was unfair of me to go off like that. I know you are only trying to help. I woke up with my throat swelled and sore while also having a pounding...
This doesn't really answer my question. I appreciate the advice but I will wait to hear from my doctor today. I don't believe it is a coincidence since the diarrhea and flu-like symptoms started...
hello all, I just started taking Lialda about three days ago and believe I am experiencing some sort of allergic reaction. I tried to take Asacol about 2 months ago and had a similar set back. I'm...
Hellokitty or Kim123, Do you think it is ok to continue eating 1-2 banana's a day. I usually make a protein shake in the morning with one and I'm going to have trouble giving that up. I won't miss...
thanks Kim123. I'll make these small changes and see what happens. I was unaware that bananas were a food to be avoided while on an anti-candida diet. I always figured they were easy on the gut. I'll...
Kim123 - I usually eat a banana or two for breakfast then have an Ensure based protein shake (made with pea protein). Throughout the rest of the day I am usually eating a gluten-free bread tunafish...
NBT- I've been questioning whether to stop using Ensure due to the sugar in it. It is basically the only sugar I consume during the day so I thought it would be ok. Does anyone have another...
hello all, I believe I may be closing off a 5 month flare that has been terrible (at least I hope I am). I've had blood transfusions and a short hospitalization to get things somewhat under control....
