Please help: I have a 16 year old son who was diagnosed with a severe case of fistulating crohn's at 11 years old. He did well for a year or so after that by taking supplements recommended by a naturopath but still continued on a very pro-inflammatory diet. He stopped the supplements because both he and his mother were in denial...this led to our separation and divorce. Last year he had a hemicolectomy and is currently getting Remicade infusions every 8 weeks. I want to keep my son alive but his mother who he is currently living with is against anything but the medical protocol. I know something about what supplements he should be taking and what types of foods he should avoid and eat. If anyone can help with supplement regimens and meal plans I would greatly appreciate it. This will be very difficult because his mother isn't even giving him the probiotics that his gastroenterologist recommended because that's part of the regimen that I had him on when he was doing well. I have to keep trying because I want to keep my son alive. Please help! My email is [email protected]
