Wow, thank you for asking. Everyone has their own healing path, and at this time, mine happens to be working. It may well change, so I make sure I stay aware of what my body is trying to tell me. At this is, what is working is :
No GF - but in moderation but never twice in 2 days
NO regular potatoes, peppers, eggplant, tomatoes
no added sugar
no beef (just my choice)

foods that are "free-from" - antibiotics, hormones, etc. (Canadian SuperStore here in Canada has a brilliant line of "Free-From" foods
I have started eating a lot more plant based foods.
occasional glass of red wine (organic if possible)

Supplements:
Vit D 4000 mg
Liquid Vit B complex
Oat Milk for the Calcium/Magnesium

ABOVE ALL ELSE, THIS HAS BEEN THE MOST BENEFICIAL OF ANYTHING I HAVE DONE:
Organic Turmeric Curcumin + Ginger liquid drops - must have curcumin for maximum absorption. (non GMO)

I hope this helps; keep in mind that everyone has their own journey. this is my third episode of PMR each were 11 years apart. Each time the recovery protocol was different, and now at age 78 I find that my body needs an easier path as assimilation isn't as easy! lol
CRP has been reducing slowly and last bloodwork it was 2.7 - yikes so happy!

I am going to retry the tumeric route. My primary (a DO) is always pushing it, too. I tried it while my small intestine was inflamed and it was not well recieved. (I also have Crohn's). Things are quiet now- thanks to the LDN and I am going to try it again. We will see if it helps.
