Praline, I just found you. Great advice! I’ve had CC for 30 yrs. A real pain. Thank you for being so open with CC. I never knew so many people suffered with this!
Can’t take Metamucil. Severe night incontinence.😭😭
Metamucil helps because it’s primarily soluable fiber. Benefil is soluable fiber too. Soluable fiber will help a lot with diarrhea, whereas insoluble fiber helps with constipation. If diarrhea is one of your symptoms, try soluable fiber every day. You can take it forever with no adverse side effects.
I thought red wine was adding to my issues, but cutting it out didn't seem to make a difference. Once I changed my diet, that's what made the big difference.
I'm happy to hear you are able to tolerate red wine! I have finally found some Gluten free beer that i am able to tolerate (thank goodness because with this illness, we need a drink every once and a while! lol). I agree that the diet change was the key to success, even though i don't feel great i don't feel as severely shitty (pun intended).

Praline - appreciate all your concern ! Great stuff, and you have great delivery......Did want to mention for you, and all here, that I urgently recommend
all sufferers refer, and buy a book by Wayne Persky on colitis - a treasure of information for all people here. Go there now! Helped my wife tremendously....
Cheers, Richard
But dairy is my life 😭
But for real, thank you so much for these tips.
i knowwww dairy was the hardest part for me too :( stay strong !
Good advice! Just wondering why you’re worried about lactose intolerance if you’re not eating dairy? I’ll be anxious to hear your thoughts about Enterolab once you get your results. I’ve heard good and bad so haven’t done it yet.
Thank you for watching 😊 i know you’ve been dealing with this illness much longer than I have so if you have any tips please pass them on ! I was advised to just eliminate dairy,soy and gluten completely from my diet until I reach remission so that’s what I’m doing but I love dairy so that’s why I’m hoping I’m not actually lactose intolerant( a girl can dream) Hence the Enterolab tests so I can be sure what I am intolerant of. I will be sure to update with my results etc!
Praline Noel it seems like most of us are casein intolerant more so than lactose. Got my fingers crossed for you 🤞🏻. I miss dairy more than anything else but every time I try to reintroduce it I notice mucous in my stool 😱. Thankfully there are more and more good non-dairy subs.
Dsnrbec I miss it too.
I think everyone has different things that flare them up. I can have diary and bread. But not fatty food. Anything that contains 40% fat or more. Bad for me.
I've got both diarrhea and constipation with my CC, but I've always had weird bowels. :) I've been taking Boswellia too, but I'm not sure it's doing anything. My GI told me to eat a low FODMAP diet, so I tried that for a while but I don't know if it helped, and that diet is a pain in the butt (ha ha!!)... He also put me on steroids for a few months (the special ones for CC) but they didn't help. I've been gluten and dairy and soy free for 15 years, and just got CC last year. I do cheat a bit on the dairy though - I have little bits of it in chocolate sometimes, stuff like that. You've inspired me to do some more serious experimenting on myself, because I have a hard time just trying one thing at a time and then I get confused and don't know if anything made a difference. I had kinda given up on anything helping, but if you've gotten some relief, maybe it's worth trying a little harder. Sucks to think I'll have this forever - and I know that doesn't always happen, but since I've had it for over a year, it feels permanent to me. All the best to you and everyone dealing with this weird problem!!
PS - I'm curious if anyone out there with CC has tried the Kathy Abascal TQI diet. That one seems like a pain, but also very healthy.
What was it called you take for your joints?
Kerry Fernbach I take a supplement called boswellia Serata you can find it on Amazon I usually get the natures way brand
Found on Colonoscopy or Endoscopy ?? Is that special scan available for this disease
Hi 👋🏼 as far as I know this illness can only be officially diagnosed through biopsies taken during a colonoscopy
Can you get constipated with your condition too ? Xxxx 💕💕💕
Hi 👋🏼
This condition affects everyone differently, I personally don’t but from what I’ve researched it is usually one (Diarrhea) or the other (constipation).
Either way it sucks ! Lol 💕
@@StomachSister oh thank you for your response and video. This makes sense to me as my colonoscopy was clear and I have all of the symptoms. We will see going forward. Thank you again !!!! Xx yes it definitely sucks ! 💕
What do you eat??
