You are so kind to respond…. I am having cramps so badly!
I have messaged with Tex and he feels the cramping is a sign my MC is very active. I am not having diarrhea and I do believe that the cramps are likely caused by stress causing my MC to be active. I am not having diarrhea but I have ...

Re: Comprehensive List of Legumes
Thank you John R.
I feel pretty certain it was a post from you that I saw where you take a half packet of Cholestyramine. That’s what I’ve been doing about every other night and a full packet every the other nights. I have had BAM since I developed MC. MC diagnosis took much too long (2022) to get ...

I suspected salt & pepper although I have forgone the pepper for 2 years! Now I can’t stand pepper. I struggle to understand this disease and how we can get adequate nutrition from such menial food options.

Re: Comprehensive List of Legumes
I know sugar isn’t a good thing but my goodness….
A little flavor to meat is helpful, aside from salt & pepper….
Sodium is an essential to a healthy diet as long as only we don’t over do it.

Re: Comprehensive List of Legumes
Wow at the list of legumes!!!! MANY I have never heard of and a good thing since legumes are not a food we with MC should consume….
To read articles about legumes they are so healthy with so many health benefits……it seems so contradictory that legumes are so bad for us who have MC.
I hope I can eat ...
