MICROSCOPIC COLITIS SUPPORT

Hi there,
I have had LC now on and off for 6 years
Back again and this time worse tHan before.
I was wondering what do people do besides diet and meds to control this disease to reduce stress?
Exercise or too tired?
Mindfulness?
Yoga?

thank you, this has been very helpful.

Hi cinemom,
This is great news,
Thanks a lot.
I went and bought gluten free bread etc yesterday, it was so depressing.
All of it tastes like cardboard!
Thanks for your advice,
Sheila

I'm going on a trip on Saturday and just got a flare up.
I was wondering what are the side affects of taking Imodium longer term as in a couple of
Weeks?
What dosage would u recommend?
Thanks,
Sinead

Thanks for your advice.
Going to regular doc tomorrow!
Not keen on going back on steroids either

Thank you so much Gabes,
It would have taken me forever to find the links

Hi there,
I am 43 and was diagnosed with LC back in summer 2011 by colonoscopy biospy.
I went on entocort and changed my diet GF, no dairy etc for 1.5 years.
I read all of your posts but never signed up until now.
Symptoms completely went away and I went back to eating everything high fiber, gluten ...
