    I know how it is to feel like you are having little progress but if you had been sick some time before diagnosed it may take more time to get the small intestine healed enough to feel better making you feel like you have been cc'd. I have been a SLOW healer, took one and one half years before I started to feel progress. Still have to be careful but am much...

Not using any meds but still experimenting to find what causes upsets of both problems...does anyone eer get to the point where you feel safe in what you eat?

    I just recently read that going off gluten can cause deperession and related problems..like we are addicted to gluten..I have been thru that too..also does take time for the diarrhea and etc problems to get under control since people who have had this problem for some time take longer to heal their gut of the damage made by gluten...fiber is helpful for some...

    I am wondering if you might have ulcerative colitis causing the bleeding...several months ago I had a colon infection that caused me to have the colitis..at that time the bleeding was severe but now only have it ocasionally..but have not been able to pinpoint the cause.

If that soapy stuff is not rinsed off it will even smell different UGH!! i want to try the idea...

    Andrea; Sorry for your loss, but he is free of pain and fought the good fight. Everyone grieves in their own way but be sure to let yourself grieve.
