MICROSCOPIC COLITIS SUPPORT

I'll just mention that I paid $24 for 180 pills (a three month supply taking one pill twice a day for off-label use for BAD) using this discount card. That's pretty amazing compared to what Welchol can cost.

I definitely have some BAD going on because I immediately turned Norman...yay! After a week ...

Smart of you to fill for only 15 pills. I paid $24 for 180 pills with the discount card...a substantial difference, hey?

I am getting some gas and bloating...typical side effects. I was gratefully Norman at first but had some D this morning so we'll see how it goes. How many pills a day were you ...

There is a discount card available for Welchol. Here is the link https://welchol.com/savings-and-support

I take one Welchol tablet twice a day...at 10 am and right before bed at around 9 pm. I take my supplements twice a day...with breakfast at around 4:30 am and at 4:30 pm. I set a timer on my ...

Welchol has a discount card available. I just posted it on a new thread but here is the link. https://welchol.com/savings-and-support

I am guessing the Welchol you refer to that contains aspartame must be the powdered form. I take the tablets and they do not contain aspartame, sucrose or any ...

Hello friends

I've been absent for many months dealing with some health issues and am anxious to read up on what's transpired during my absence. But I wanted to immediately share this discount card for Welchol. My GI doc prescribed Welchol after I could not tolerate the Cholestyramine powder. I ...

So after replying to all of you...and I can't express how much I appreciate and am grateful for your advice; it really helped me and I would've been completely lost and alone without you...I wanted to explain that I am doing much better. :-)

I had a colonoscopy a month ago and no lymphocytes in ...

The other thing I thought of overnight, is workplace / work schedule.
is your work day stressful?

are the symptoms worse after work days, bit better on non work days?

Yes, high stress...Level I Trauma Center Transfusion Service. And yes, worse on work days.

Unfortunately I must work and my ...

agree with suggestions above, apple juice might be a) too acidic and b) too much fruit sugar at this early stage of healing

and if you are concerned about chicken (and there are many here to that do react to chicken) then things like Lamb, Venison, (or other game meats) are the best options to try ...

Hi Joanne,

I see a pattern here....and I think I see too much of it....I would rotate the chicken (yes it can be a 3+ for us, I rotate it....because I am supposed to be able to tolerate it but I can't as hard as I try)...test Cornish Hen (that's close to a chicken taste but its wild farm raised ...

...but I've been inundated with work and family stuff. Sorry it took me so long to respond!

Hi Joanne,

In general some time on a narrower diet will help you make more clear determinations. You might consider ditching the apple juice for awhile due to sugar content. Your diet is generally safe. It ...

So I've been on the bland phase of this elimination diet since mid May, on and off Uceris with varying Loperamide regimens (daily then twice daily then every other day) since May 12 thanks to my previous GI doc and most recently have been on daily Uceris plus twice daily Loperamide since July 1 ...

Hope it went good other than your trip home!!

Thank you, that verse is the only reason I've gotten through 41 years of life !

It did...and no puking!

Such a huge blessing that we are not alone.

Good luck to you! I get a fever every time I go through the "clean out" process. Every time the nurse checks with the dr to see if they can still go through with it. I tell them in a shivering voice, oh yes he is....

Thanks! Poor you. I invariably puke on the way home.

BTW, love that verse in ...

Thanks everyone! I feel MC-equipped to handle the prep now.
