Dec 2010-symptoms started
Jan 2011 -first Dr visit
middle of Feb 2011 -follow up with GI / diagnosis
March 2011 -Began alternative forms of treatment (see last post)
Began keeping a daily journal with all the gross details towards the end of March. How I wish I would of thought of it sooner, so I could really compare my symptoms from a month ago.
So now it's April. I think I am getting better. I joined a forum for people like me at healingwell.com. When I read what some of them are going through, I don't feel like I am in all that bad of shape. And looking for patterns in my journal is sort of leading me to believe that my symptoms are slowing down. I guess this is a very slow process, fighting it cell by cell.
Here is my daily fight:
Following the autoimmune protocol developed by Dr Fuhrman for people with UC:
food consists of freshly made green juice, green soups, and steamed veggies (peas, carrots, squash, zucchini, artichokes), bananas, and oz of nut/ seed butter each day
daily supplements: probiotics, B12, iron, D, EPA, turmeric
this is all I can do until school is over- then I can do a water fast
