@aah - great input! I’m a big Fairlife milk fan because it lasts in the fridge a loooong time and single girls just don’t drink milk that fast. I will have to try their protein products. I’m fond of the cold brew flavor I drink now but I will look for them!

in reply to @aah Thank you. My gastro doctor at Sutter removed me from his service because I filed a grievance against him 2 years ago after he threw me out of his exam room while I was in mid sentence, asking him questions he was either unable to answer or would not answer. I have now been referred to UC Davis for further care in this regard. It will take months to get an appointment for the procedures that have been recommended in an effort to find out what is "really" going on: Colonoscopy, endoscopy and ECRP with biopsies. I am not looking forward to any of this at all, but understand I have to keep up with my appointments or no one will "treat" me. Having said this, I also know that UC Davis does not "play well with Sutter" in that they do not communicate well with other hospitals in the community. My former rheumatologist has suggested that I go to Stanford, and I am exploring that with my insurance carrier. She does not believe I am getting the appropriate "attention" or care at Sutter, and I believe her. Believe me, I eat all kinds of Greek yogurt, fruit, eggs, chicken, almond butter etc. However, sometimes I just give up and don't eat at all because everything goes right through me. I try.
