Re: Need Cholestyramine Advice
Hi Laine I meant to ask if you are in remission? Sounds like it. I’m only four months into recovery so having this success is a baby step and a significant mental health bonus. The Entero stool test results indicated sensitivities in all fifteen categories. I’d love to think I can attain remission ...

Re: Need Cholestyramine Advice
Since my last post, things have deteriorated significantly and I’m at my wits end. I have increased my cholestyramine from 2 per day to 3 but the only change is an increased number of trips to the bathroom. One month ago I was in much better shape, producing small ribbons of stool and some paste ...

Re: Need Cholestyramine Advice
(Continued). MC, but recommended I take cholestyramine 3 times a day. I have increased the dosage to 3 times daily, but the result is still the same—more yellow WD. After a few more days, I have stopped the cholestyramine. My questions: 1. What should I do now? 2. Should I just continue eating my ...

Re: MORE QUESTIONS FR0MA BEGINNER
Thank you Tex. I assume the four Mg tablets I’m taking daily are appropriate. Do you have a cholestyramine brand you can recommend for MC patients that doesn’t have sugar, flavorings, and coloring all of which gave me problems when I took Cholestyramine a couple of years ago?
I want to apologize ...

Digestive Enzymes
I am wondering if bloating and gas can be remedied by digestive enzymes, but I don’t know how to choose a specific product. Anyone have any suggestions? Many thanks.
