MICROSCOPIC COLITIS SUPPORT

MCR, I too am a success story. I check in with the Forum every month or so to learn and see if I can offer any help.
My life has essentially returned to normal with the exception that I avoid all gluten and limit dairy. I have been accidentally "poisoned" 3 times in the last 6 months. Each time the ...

Thank you Marcia. I appreciate the kind words.

The recipe looks great. Thank you!

Ok. You have convinced me. I will stay away from gluten.
And I can't believe I am saying this: I can't wait for my next colonoscopy! (that's just sick!!)

Tex,

Thank you for your response. I will ask my doctor to order the blood test.

I just googled selective IgA deficiency. I will confess that I am having a hard time understanding it all!
What are the implications of selective IgA deficiency and diet? Are you suggesting that the EnteroLabs test ...
