Is lymphocytic colitis autoimmune?

@sickofpasswordsu2 So sorry you had this awful experience. I do know that certain drugs can trigger the onset and it sounds like you've got great docs that discovered what works for you! With me, it could have been autoimmune (since I have an autoimmune thyroid disease, plus an autoimmune skin condition) or NSAIDS, which I took often for aches & pains and also PPIs for GERD. All those drugs could be triggers. There are no real alternatives for the GERD drugs, so I'm stuck there. I take budesonide to control the colitis now and no more NSAIDS. I have flare-ups several times a year.

@reggiemc
I have taken the same drugs as you and I need up with MC after that.
A new thing my husband and sister pushed was for me to try 4 ounces daily of Kombucha. It’s only been 2 weeks but so far it does seem to help. I had to try a couple flavors as I am sensitive to taste and had to hold my nose. Finally the apple goes down the easies and now I don’t hold my nose.
After all we have been through this is a cheap try.
Have a good day !
