I have done an elimination diet a number of times and recommend it strongly. I know some think since we are not dealing with intentional issues such as Crohn’s -food should not matter. I believe and know through experience that there are foods-maybe chemicals-that I can not manage. Flarups happen immediately. Stress of any kind, good or not, and not enough rest cause a relapse. I have come off prednesone completely right now and use drugs only intermittently - more to help ward off an episode. I do take B12 and B6. Quality of life is so important - I have found -step by step -taking control with food and life style -I can manage much better. One step at a time!

I didn't finish the post lol! The whole time I was watching the special, I was wondering why I wasn't already there!
