I, too, have a diagnosis of microscopic colitis. Your post is informative and I will look into the Facebook group and this book.
I have found that cholestyramine first thing in the morning and one Imodium in the afternoon helps me. I agree on the fewer fruits and vegetables.

I was diagnosed in April ( mild but OMG where is the nearest bathroom?) I used a half Imodium every 2-3 days which held me to “ normal” without a diet change. I really wanted was the cause of this out of blue onset. I reviewed ALL supplements with Doc and turns out I was taking Lipo Flavenoids for tinnitus ( which helped that) years ago and when I felt a new twinge of recurring tinnitus I began again. Turns out it’s a trigger for MC. Totally coincided with that restart of lipo flavenoid. I stopped and all MC symptoms abated by 7-10 days. Been a few months now. Ear not too bad either.

Check your supplements! If flavenoid is in your routine see if eliminating it will help.

Good luck
