Bev,

Thanks for the glowing update. It's always good to hear that someone's treatment program is going so well.

My GI doc wanted me off Entocort too soon and I found a way around (e.g. generic). I am so pleased I did not taper down too soon.

Good news for both of you; Joe & Bev. Joe do get on the GF program, it will make a world of difference. The energy level seems to be the same for most of us; it takes time. I'm in my 6 mo on GF/DF/SF/EF and have begun doing more than "getting through the day". I love to work out side and have played a little golf with hubbie. Although by the end of the day I need my 8 hours sleep.....kinda like Gabes. Ginny

Ginny I have been DF for about 10 years now as I just stopped tolerating it. I too like Gabes have the issue with fatigue and needing the 8-10 hours at night. I am planning on going GF starting next week as I stock up on recipes and ingredients. Although I have been very good this week with little to none of the gluten in my diet.

Thanks so much for the input

--Joe

It still amazes me that doctors look at entocort as a short term cure instead of a long term treatment. Guess the good news is that at least more doctors are finding entocort works... it just isn't a cure.
