    • I’m With You

      From MnM528 September 10

      I understand how you feel ! I have had 4 attacks since last november and I have had to take antibiotics each time and always 2 rounds of them. I have been told that it is best to go on liquids for a couple of days and to let the colon rest when getting an attack then after that go on a bland soft diet. It is so different for all of us some can eat somethings that others cannot it seems that it is just finding out what works for our own individual bodies but from my expierence I would definately go on the luquids for a couple of days and then the soft bland diet. I was also advised by my Dr to not eat alot of beef and eat more chicken and fish preferrable grilled or boiled. I do hope you feel better soon you well definatly be in my thoughts and prayers

      Cipro Too Soon to Tell
      I am taking Cipro with Flagyl...I don't know which one it is, but it tastes really bad. I'm not sure if its working. I guess I feel a lot better than when I was diagnosed, but I don't feel like my old self. Not sure if I ever will.
