Collagenous Colitis or Microscopic Colitis

Brand new diagnosis for me, today. How does such a condition as this decide on a Thursday afternoon... at 3:30...between students...to suddenly attack a body? Now my doc has prescribed 6 pills a day for 6-12 months with the hope that it might resolve. A realistic expectation??? I'll do whatever I can to help that be so but I have questions. I understand I am to eliminate caffeine and lactose. What I can't seem to sort out is how to plan a meal! Is there anyone else out there with this diagnosis that can offer suggestions for breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks...? I need help with good breakfast choices. Well, actually all 'meal' choices. I've been on Weight Watcher for the past year. I try very hard to limit white foods and sugars so as not to tempt fate and tip the diabetic numbers. There just seem to be too many 'factors' for me to sort to come up with eating plans and I would greatly appreciate some help. This is the first time I've been to this site....so I hope there is someone out there with a few suggestions for me. Thanks in advance for your consideration. Keep well.

Thank you! That's a really good suggestion and I'll follow it. I appreciate that. We leave on Sunday for vacation with the family, so I'll be 'winging it' I guess until we return next week at least. The doc put me on ASACOL, also..only I'll be taking 3 pills 2 times a day. I hope it makes a difference soon and I hope it 'agrees with me'?? Not sure what to expect. Yesterday was the first day I ate ANYTHING in 5 days! I'm not particularly hungry. I didn't lose much weight :( . I just want to feel more comfortable and get my body back to processing food 'normally!'. That scope prep was absolutely pure torture for me! I don't want to be a distraction for my family on our trip. Thank you, again, for your recommendation and I will do that.
