I hate to say it and jinx myself but for the last two days I have felt really good.  I even ate a bacon and egg sandwich this morning and left the house fine and am working with no problems.  Could it be the Humira starting to kick in?  VSL #3?  I have less urgency and the number of times I have been to the bathroom is drastically reduced.  It's about time.  Just feel hopeful for once in a long time.

     YAAAA Boxermom!!!  I am having a great day too.  Isn't it just amazing how we come to appreciate the "good days"?  Makes me wanna try Humira if Remicade doesn't work...lol.  Still shakin about the removal of the colon.

Well boxermom I really hope it keeps up for you. I am not great yesterday and today. I think the humira is starting to wear off. I am due an other injection in 4 days time, so I really hope that will settle me back down and maybe build it up a bit more in my system.
I still have higher energy levels though so thats great.

Take Care

I hope it lasts for me too.  I just seem to be going a little less and the pressure and urgency feel a little better.  Tomorrow is another day though.  Could be a bad one for all we know.  I do have sores in the corner of mouth and around my lips.  I also feel like I have thrush mouth.  Strange.

YAY!

Today I saw a bacon chocolate bar. I dunno about that, lol

Oh well. At least I had two good days. Not so great today.

   AWWW bummer boxermom.  I am having a bad day today too.  My hubby can't understand this.  Yesterday was glorious...no BM's at all, no pressure either.  Today , right after my rice krispies (hmmmm....I used 1%milk cause no Silk in the house)  boom....right to the toilet.  First bowel movement was normal though and I was as happy as a lark.  Then the dam opened up.  Must have gone seven times after that...urgency, some blood, pressure, cramps.  I still ate my turkey sandwich for lunch and some sherbet...screw it!  If I suffer watching my diet like a hawk, then I will suffer eating what I likeskull .

I actually settled down right before I left for work.  It is so hard sitting here worrying about am I going to make it to the bathroom on time.

I just printed out the entire list of legal/illegal foods on the SCD diet.  Might really try to follow.  It doesn't seem to matter what goes in.  It all comes out.

I am hoping on Wednesday after my next two Humira shots I see even more improvement. 

Sorry Christine.  I hate having bad days.  That Remicade did nothing for me.
