I'm not sure anyone offered some diet suggestions to Sharleneh- or anyone else so I will try. I have had Crohn's for over 40 yrs and I am still here so must be doing something quasi-right. In a flair- go as low fiber as you can. Get calories from from sources that your gut doesn't have to process. Instant mashed potatos, jello, puddings and the like. Do this for several days until things quiet down and/or your doc offers something else. Then add back things still concentrating on low fiber. Most cook books or the internet can offer low fiber diets. The Mediterean Diet is not for you. When you are tolerating this is well, you still have to be careful. Don't get overconfidant and trip yourself up. You will find out your trouble spots and they are likely different for everyone. Look at Low Dose Naltrexone and its effect on Crohn's disease. It helps over 80% of us, me included. I've even had a "normal" colonscopy. I have to eat all my veggies well cooked and as a child, I loved raw vegatables. Believe me, your life isn't over. Far from it. Go and do. Treat yourself well.
