Thanks so much for sharing all Of that! Primal Defense was the one I was trying. I'm sticking to Kefir in smoothies for now until I see the GI again.

This still doesn't make any sense to me. Nine days? Are they giving you Humira for 9 days? At what dosage? Humira is usually 40mg every two weeks.

Then I'm not clear on the purpose of the study.

Do you have Crohns?

Hopefully Humira helps you get your body back!! It's okay to have the pity party!

Turn that emoji frown upside down @autoimmine queen ! I started Humira in May and it's kicking in and I feel so much better physically and emotionally!

I can't imagine someone else doing the injection. I like having control. But I know what you mean about the clicking. I hear it in my head when I'm psyching myself up. I just try to take deep breaths and think about how much the medicine helps me. I usually get pretty jazzed on injection days...

I just read The Perfect Health Diet and purely from a feasibility standpoint, it seems better for me than the more restrictive diets. I didn't think diary bothered me until I went to the trouble of ordering a pizza with gluten free crust and was cramping up after my first piece. PHD encourages...

Given that your Crohn's has necessitated another surgery, meds at least for now, seem like a good idea in my opinion. So many here have had good luck with both Imuran and the biologics. Coming to terms with the scariness of the drugs is easier than letting the disease totally wreck you.

Thank you! I need it for sure, it's been a rough few months.

Alrighty. They aren't claiming to have reinvented the wheel. The forward is by the Daily Apple Mark guy & Jordan Reasoner is quoted as well. I can't imagine I'll follow anything to the letter but this seemed like a good framework to start with.

It's paleo based but allows what they call "safe starches". http://perfecthealthdiet.com/the-diet/

Had a great day. I hope I'm on to something. Biggest difference is not being bloated and miserable tonight!

I've been experiencing similar symptoms so I'm interested to see what others say. So sorry you're dealing with this too!

I'm not quite finished with the book and haven't stocked up on cool things like chicken feet but am cutting grains & sugar already. I'm "between" GIs after having moved so I feel like if I'm going to try a diet, this is the time. Who else is on this specific one? Or about to start?

I don't see why Humira wouldn't be worth a try just to see if you respond to it better?

I'm on Humira, not remicade, but I was progressing quickly too. I was afraid of the drugs at first too but realized they're totally worth it. I try to think of it as they're making me stronger and healthier.

What I read said lots of water to flush it out. I think the Epsom salt bath helped too. I tried it again yesterday with terrible results.

Just coming back to this. The colace isn't helping all the time. Is there something else I can take? Or something with a lot of soluble fiber. I'm still supposed to be low-fiber diet but this sucks. I have one banana a day and coffee usually helps me go but seems to upset my stomach!
