I was diagnosed with microscopic colitis and celiac a couple of years ago. The GI doctor prescribed a course of budesonide, which moderately helped until I tapered off. After a lot of ups and downs over the course of 2 years, I am finally in microscopic colitis remission. Since I am also diabetic, I was started on metformin and Jardiance. Metformin by itself helped moderately. I added Jardiance and I was much better. I stopped the metformin and relapsed and when I added it back, I regained remission. I think metformin and Jardiance helped my colitis because they reduce inflammation in the gut. Metformin is known to favorably modulate the gut microbiome and reduce inflammatory cytokines. Similarly, emerging evidence supports the anti-inflammatory properties of SGLT2 inhibitors like Jardiance. Once I was on both, the diarrhea stopped completely, even though nothing else ever worked long-term. There is a Facebook group that can be very informative and helpful. Look for "Microscopic Colitis and Lymphocytic Colitis Support Group. You will find that members of the Facebook group identify other pathways to remission of microscopic colitis.

Hello, @Mrs Wolfe, I crushed three vertebrae moving a chest of drawers. I take a combination of Thiamine Vitamin B1, Vitamin B12, and Pyridoxine B6. Together these vitamins have an analgesic effect. I think it works better than OTC pain relievers. I also like "Takeda ALINAMIN EX Plus Vitamin B1 B6 B12 Health Supplementary from Japan 120 Tablets" . It's all three vitamins together in one pill. Works wonderfully! -

It's the Potassium Iodide in the HRT pills that is triggering Dermatitis Herpetiformis and the increased IGG levels. The thyroid is stimulated by the Potassium Iodide, which stimulates immune cells to make more IGG antibodies. Thiamine Vitamin B1 helps the thyroid function. I like Benfotiamine and TTFD Thiamax. -
