Thanks for understanding VanJordon. @brucen I was thinking along those lines too about the enema...
Typo - I was meant to write my knowledge on the subject matter is much better than before now, thank you for the information. But useless Gmail cut it off... I wasn't intending on praising myself it...
Hi Vanjordan, Thank you for your time and effort in writing such a detailed and informative post. My knowledge of this is subject matter is much better. I myself have been looking into natural...
Also I forgot to mention cabbage juice is high in anti oxidents and great for UC, it helps but sadly not a cure......
That should do it, use a strainer when pouring it out to remove the flesh of the cabbage as that can irritate the colon...
Thank you for the insight, if we could figure out how to increase catalase and reduce the hydrogen peroxide then we have done it!! Easier said than done so hopefully someone somewhere could figure...
Am I right in thinking a catalase supplement would help. From my limited knowledge it breaks down hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen......
@iPoop @therearemiracles @poopydoop @VanJordan Thank you all for your imputs. It seems like this is more of a miss than a hit. I will update the thread if any progress is made...
Old Mike you are back!!! I read you went missing for a bit and I was worried about you. Good to see you are alive and kicking my friend. With the regards to the study it makes sense. I am currently...
Hi Guys, Anyone tried Mutaflor / e.coli Nissle 1917 probiotic. It based on a friendly version of e. coli probiotic. Heard lots of things about it from UC sufferers. I ordered some, took one and got...
I swear by Raw cabbage juice (usually red) you make in your juicer removing most of the fibre. Yes, I know it tastes disgusting, but it is one of the best things you can take if you have IBD. What so...
Hi Poopydoop, I can confirm that's true, the gastro team told me before they discharged me yesterday. I'm home now and been put on pred 40mg tapering. I'm very pleased that I have done everything to...
Bless you. Hopefully they should discharge me today. On a side note it's quite troubling that all the serve is microwave meals... Not good for people with damaged guts...
Thank you Sara, I appreciate your kind words. Feeling better today so it seems the cocktail of morphine and hydrocortisone seems to be working...
Hey UCyousee, thank you for your kind wishes. Always good to hear from a fellow Londoner esp when it comes to hospital treatments. Sounds like you dodged a bullet and all the additional suppliments...
Nope, the ibd playing up has hit both groups according to the doctors I spoke to, ibd is a tricky one as its difficult to spot any patterns, the covid only lasted a few days for me and symptoms were...
I'm in hospital now, went on Friday to a@e as the pain was too much. I was going almost 20times a day with nothing but blood coming out of me. The doctors said that they have seen alot of ibd...
Thank you...
Just a quick update, spoke to the hospital ibd team today, they confirmed that it is highly likely that omicron is the cause. They told me to continue with my usual treatment (Mezavant) and take...
Thank you Haley, That's reassuring to hear that I'm not the only one in this position...
Thank you quincy, I will do. I have wait and see how this develops over the next few days ...
Thank you guys, I was starting to loose hope this morning. Really appreciate your input on this...
Thank you, I will do. Appreciate the advice...
Hi Guys, It's been a while since I have been on this forum. The contributors have been amazing. A few days ago I had probably the worst flare to date. This time there was no buld up or warning. Also...
Thank you Old Hat and Jane. I noticed lowering the amount of fat in my diet and increasing fibre (via phylliem husk...I cant spell it) helped reduce the amount of wet farts (Sharts) I was having....
Hey Donnie, I did it once and found a huge amount coconut oil come out of me in the morning. At the time I was flaring so it made me worst. I did make a mental note of doing it again but...
Perhaps this might help; I know the feeling of being stressed and helpless very well, I work in a high pressure job where its ruthless and dog eat dog. In my world you can lose your job within a few...
Hi Guys, Thank you all for the feedback, I think I am having a minor/mild flare as the bowel movements have been normal and thankfully there is no blood. Over the holidays I intend to increase the...
Hi iPoop, A couple of things changed; 1. After being unable to work for over a year due to UC I got a job in Mar 18. Sadly the company got acquired and has been very stressful since multiple people...
I too haven't been on the forum quite a while now but I do remember Old Mike. Really happy to hear that the longest flare I have ever heard of is now over :) Congratulations!...
Thank you guys, Whilst the website looks very dodgy there is an article in the journal which seems reputable, I had my doubts on this one too. One thing I do know about coconut oil is that it's a...
Hey Guys, I hope all is well, it would be good to know it anyone has tried a Coconut Oil Enema? According to the The American Journal of Gastroenterology (October, 2018), a women was due to have hers...
Hi feelinghelplesswithuc, This has worked for me after I suffered my most vicious flare in April 17. Click on the link thread below, please read it with an open mind and feel free to research it. I...
Whilst its not a cure, I cannot deny Vitamin D is very important for UC patients or anyone with immune system issues. I have personally seen a difference. I must also stress that many UC and Chrons...
I'm merely pointing out what is working for me, what anyone chooses to do is solely up to them. Whilst the consumption of meat and smoking helped, I also consumed cabbage juice, LDN and CDS Thus it...
Hi Fos4snt, Unfortunately it's not the nicotine as I was on patches before and still flared. I have looked into this and found the following; 1. Smoking creates a Mucus in the colon and stomach thus...
Hi guys, A quick update - I have been taking 1 teaspoon of CDS in water x2 a day for the last 2 weeks ish and the colon and stomach noises have died down and almost gone. I have also observed that...
Smoking did not stop my flare or cure me but what it did do was lower my bm and also reduced the quantity of blood. I read somewhere that 60% of colitis cases are ex smokers. The other thing I read...
@ MarjieKay Knowledge is power. Only a fool would put blind faith in the hands of a group of so called professionals who openly admit they don't know what causes UC, don't have the cure yet mock...
@MarjieKay You are defn on the right track. My knowledge of IBD improved massively when I met my nautropath, he studies research and reads books on out of the box thinking treatments for fun, he has...
Worth mentioning the naturopath I know believes colitis is caused by a micro bacterial infection, I have also read that this ties in with the leaky gut theory too....
@ Old Mike - Sorry to hear about it. I read once that hypoxia is the route cause of many autoimmune diseases, are you familiar with that? @TroubleTurds - LOL, so true! @JerseyGuy1 - Do let me know...
I'm speachless... (I'm assuming that you haven't tried any of the medicines that most posters talk about anytime in the last decade or so). I appreciate UC is different person to person but Why not...
Wow that must be horrific. When you mentioned you are flaring am I right in thinking that you have been bleeding daily since 1986?...
Thanks Old Mike, I'm really grateful you commented as I noticed on many threads you seem to have tried everything over the years and well read. What has worked for you, I noticed you have tried LDN...
Thanks jerseyguy1, Glad to be part of the team :) It's awesome to hear that other people having success with red cabbage juice too. UC is a real nightmare to deal with.. I also read that mixing fresh...
I agree I really don't trust mainstream medication after what I've been through, read and researched. I was stupid enough for them to give me Zoldronic acid bisphosphonate. On the packet and the...
Thanks Uniform Charlie, Thanks for mentioning that, I am planning to join a gym and start lifting, but I didn't know where to start, useful to know that bar bells are useful in this....
This is a very old thread but I wanted to thank you guys, I was flaring and I tried red cabbage juice with carrot juice, it stopped the flare within a fortnight, nothing else was working even modern...
Whenever I'm flaring all meals consist of Banana, Gluetin free bread, Rice and Kebabs (Red Meat - I dont know why but it works, I suspect its the b12, Iron etc)...
