    My Quest for LDN

    LOL yeah I'm feeling better. Going lower residue with my diet lately and I feel like its helping. I'm going in for my entocort Rx on the 4th so hopefully that makes me feel awesome. Trying to not get too anxious about it so I don't freak myself out :biggrin: Are you ok?

    Woohoo! I have a new GI AND a new treatment!

    That's awesome! I know you must have felt a great sense of relief to finally get answers and to be getting them from a doctor that has all the proper resources right at his fingertips! I hope your new treatment helps!

    Are there any "healthy" dietary supplement drinks?

    I've asked them to before. Maybe next time I can gather more sources and send another email that is hopefully more convincing.

    Boswellia extract effective in Crohn's, colitis

    It will say on the back of the bottle if it uses the AKBA formulation.

    Are there any "healthy" dietary supplement drinks?

    It really is a great drink (aside from the carrageenan). They just hit a little bump in the road :smile:

    Boswellia extract effective in Crohn's, colitis

    Yep... that's it. It's the Life Extension. I take 2 in the AM and 2 in the PM. Not sure if that's really the greatest to do but I'm doing my best! Hopefully it's not going to make me sprout tentacles or explode my liver :biggrin:

    Boswellia extract effective in Crohn's, colitis

    Cool. Looks like the boswellia I've been using has the akba formulation. It's not the boswellia 3k stuff though.

    Are there any "healthy" dietary supplement drinks?

    The formula change happened around August 2012. What they did was take the soy out and replaced it with some other suspension stuff. I was living off Orgain pretty regularly at the time and the formula change was really annoying but I emailed the company and they were great. Once they got the...

    My Quest for LDN

    Well, my CDAI turned out to not be high enough for the TSO study :frown: I'm a little bummed but mostly I'm annoyed because the CDAI doesn't really represent me in the first place. The good (not so good) news is that part of the results came back from my stool sample and it showed that I have...

    Azathioprine or LDN

    Hi, keriberry! I understand it being difficult to choose. I've never been on aza but am currently taking LDN and I feel that it is helping me. My symptoms were mild prior to starting LDN but there are others here who were in worse shape than me when they started LDN and are doing better. The...

    Is cannabis good for Crohn's ?

    You should save the vaped remains from your volcano... you can cook with them! Just be sure they are finely ground. I shared my really simple recipe in this thread. It's a good beginner's method of cooking with cannabis.

    Let's give it a go!

    The minimal side effects is the best point I can think of about LDN. I think the lowest dose of pred you can be on for LDN to still be affective is 10mg. I don't know of any warnings for toddlers taking LDN. HERE is the most recent (full) study paper for LDN in children. The youngest in that...

    My Quest for LDN

    I went in today for my orientation for the TSO study. Next week I'm providing a stool sample for fecal calprotectin and at some point during the study, I'll have a colonoscopy. I have not been instructed to stop taking the LDN yet (they are finding out if I should stop taking it). So, hooray...
