Best diet for those with Collagenous colitis

I was diagnosed in October and am currently on a course of Budesonide, which helps. I also have Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency, so Creon is also on my menu. Lost 15 pounds in two months but now appear to be holding steady. My triggers so far are beans and raw veggies. I used to eat salads for lunch almost every day, but no more. Tried chili last night and the beans set me off, so they are off my menu for good šŸ™ I have been all over the internet looking for a recommended diet for collagenous colitis but so far no luck. It would be great if the Mayo Clinic could provide something!

Hello, Iā€™m new to this group. I was recently diagnosed with the same two issues, EPI and Collangeous Colitis. Iā€™m on Budesonide and Lomotil for the CC and Creon 36,000 units for the EPI. I, too, am trying to figure out what to and not to eat with both of these conditions. My GI dr said no dairy or ibuprofen for the CC and minimal fat for the EPI. Iā€™m lost and honestly the Budesonide doesnā€™t appear to be working. So Iā€™m not sure what to do next. Iā€™m eating toast, plain chicken, rice, jello, egg whites and low fat soups. Unfortunately Iā€™m of little help.
