OMG, warts! They are so frustrating! It took me the longest time to figure out why my feet hurt, as I too hadn't had a plantars wart before imuran. Best of luck to you in the dating realm -- I hope...
I have some leftover zofran from my parasitical adventure this summer, but so far this nausea isn’t that bad yet. My son had some bad nausea this summer (sedation related) and one of his docs...
I totally identify with this, LeafsFan. This fear led me to experiment with diet (IBD AID, SCD), because I figured, after a tough winter of cold viruses where I was out of commission for way too long...
Had some slight nausea tonight after eating dinner (after taking the med this morning), but weirdly, drinking a glass of water helped. Your mileage may vary?...
Ooh hair loss, forgot about that one. Goodie! :/...
IP, I’ve always taken my meds in the morning, with breakfast—didn’t even think of trying a different time of day. I’ll be trying that out! The nausea has not been too bad so far, Sara, at least for...
So I’m restarting imuran after about ten months off. I’m an old hand at it, as I first started taking it back in 2003 (or 2004? Hmm) and stopped only recently for a dietary experiment with my Gastro...
That is awesome, Rosie! I think that there's a lot to be said for forming new healthier eating habits with these diets. I tend to comfort-eat, and while the IBD-AID was pretty dictatorial, I...
There's a part of the book It's OK That You're Not OK (really good book about grief, tho not really about chronic illness) that discusses the tendency of people to do this, and tries to shed light on...
I agree that for me there really aren't any "safe" foods. I had some success with mesalamine treatment paired with the IBD-AID/SCD diets, but I can also eat or drink just about anything I'd like...
Just a belated chime-in -- I finished up a course of prednisone in September and wow, did I have both dizziness and tingly hands during the last few weeks of the taper down. It wasn't painful at any...
Hi folks, wanted to give an update on my IBD-AID/SCD diet and med changes. (I thought I’d post it here to keep it all together.) This summer went pretty well through July and my colonoscopy, which...
iPoop -- I don't think I'd call myself victorious ever! It's not that type of disease. It's more like pockets/periods of calm, and this is a particularly surprising period of calm. And I am...
Just a quick update: I had my colonoscopy done on July 1st, and my colon looked great, no action, biopsies all negative. Still on the diet 100%, which is hard and sometimes silly —eating out is...
little_bear, it took me about two-three months of 100% compliance on the IBD-AID to see a change in my UC symptoms; however, because I started the diet while already in a long remission (thanks to a...
