Any thoughts???Ideas welcome!!

Hey I'm a newbie to this. Was Dx with crohns in May '10...it sucks! But struggling to get better. I am now on that candida diet..tried trial and error myself, got too frustrated, tried several nutritionist...few tried to put me back in the hospital, then decided to try the candida diet..seems to be going ok. It's almost 4 months and I've been able to eat salads again (not alot mind you) and also nuts...few foods I was originally told couldn't eat for a long while...any one else have any thoughts on this??

Hi Abdo,
Welcome to the forums!

I went to a nutritionist several years ago, the ones I have seen all wanted me to do things that my GI docs said not to. Be careful with nuts the pieces can cause nasty issues in your guts!

Hi Nica

Thanks for your reply...I will keep an eye on things...I've had to be careful on certain foods. I am also trying to lose some weight, I'm on Imuran and just got off of budesinide. I find I can't work out like I used to...anything aggressive seems to aggravate my symptoms...all this is still new to me!! I was only Dx in may and my cousin has it, but his symptoms are different than mine! It so hard to try to figure things out, because everyone is so different!!!

Thank you

Actually the forum wiki is for informative articles rather than discussion. One of the admins moved your post To start a new post, choose the forum you want it to be in then look on the left, above the existing posts. There should be a button marked 'new topic'. Press that, and away you go!
