Collagenous colitis - what can I do about it?11/02/2009 |
I have had this complaint for decades (it was only diagnosed last year)and am slowly getting results from restricting my diet mainly - no medication has worked for long. I am avoiding fats and oils, gluten, salicylates and dairy foods so my diet is absurdly restricted. I still get symptoms and am struggling a bit. Surprisingly I still have energy and my health is/seems otherwise ok (I take a daily multivitamin, + calcium, + magnesium) I see a gastroenterologist regularly as well as a dietician. What else can I do? I`d be grateful for any help. Thank you.
Thank you for visiting NetWellness. This question would be better answered in the Digestive Disorders topic. Please look in that topic for an answer to your question.
