My daughter has UC (almost 2yrs old)

[eragsdale]

Just wanted to say hi, and let out my breath that i have been holding since she was about 8mon old.

My daughter who will be 2 in November just got diagnosed with UC. She is starting on Mesalamine.

We currently follow the Paleo lifestyle with modifications of still consuming rice and potato flour. She also avoids tomatoes. We re-introduced egg yokes last week and seem to be doing okay.

Would love to know if anyone else has seen a difference in going Paelo....

So sorry to hear about your little girl.....:hug:
Now that she's started treatment hopefully things settle down fast.

How has your little girl been doing?:heart:

We don't do that diet but we do a "clean eating" diet.
Works great for us and Grace can hold her weight around 35 lbs and she just went through another growth spurt. YA!:soledance:

Hi eragsdale and :welcome:

I am so very sorry to hear about your little girl...:hug:

I hope things settle quickly for your daughter and she finds lasting relief with the Mesalamine, bless her.

My children are much older and were diagnosed with Crohn's as teenagers. My son eats very healthily with primarily fresh and organic food being the mainstay of his diet but he does have the occasional takeaway that is far from fresh or organic!
My daughter is raw vegan, no caffeine and only has sugar derived from the fresh and organic produce she eats. An extreme diet but it seems to be working for her. She is an adult though and was in remission when she commenced it so it is difficult to say if it makes a difference to her disease process.

Good luck Mum and welcome aboard!
