Just wanted to send good thoughts your way and hope you are feeling a bit better. It does take time to get your strength and emotional health back, but just know we are all here for support and encouragement. Hugs to you :)

thank you. i must say i am starting to feel a lot better. im following david kleins diet and feeling quite well. my energy is coming back and im sleeping better. im eating grapes with a dotted banana every day for breakfast and i just love it.

im then eating bananas and either mango in a smoothis, or with apple or pear. or just a melon. then in the evening i make a big soup of sweet potatoes, carroy butternut squash, celery and a potatoes, with vegetable stock.

i find this is the most nourishing diet. a vegan diet i believe is the way to go. with the occasional bit of meat and dairy, but kept to a mininum.

im rearing to go and get better.

im going to start tai chi soon too. as it works on the concept of blocked energy or tension causing illness. this makes sense to me as i suffer from anxiety and always have tension in the stomach which i strongly believe is causing my ilness. i dont think it was any coincidence that i was doing exams and was stressed when i got the flare up.

thanks for all ur support,

Jon

with the meat i meant to say that i will ocassionally eat it and dairy when im out of the flare up. i think meat and dairy are the worst things to eat when in a flare up. i also drink around 3 litres of water a day.
