optimistic! - Living With Crohn's
http://livinwithcrohns.livejournal.com/3047.html
Probably partly thanks to having our housewarming party on Saturday, I ate like a pig this weekend. A dozen deviled eggs (with home made mayo), SCD legal peanut butter brownies, meatloaf (with home made ketchup), and probably a pound of cheese. I also discovered that (SCD legal) apple cider and vodka is pretty good - probably a lot better than the one mixer suggested in the book: club soda. And since they don't sell it in bulk packages in the store, the lady made up a price ($3-something a pound? So prob...

Living With Crohn's
http://livinwithcrohns.livejournal.com/tag/scd
I guess we're about due for an update over here. The Specific Carbohydrate Diet now for more than a week, and haven't noticed a single consequence of eating all of these delicious carbohydrates. On the other hand, on Tuesday I missed my morning doses of Asacol and Prednisone, and by the end of the day I was feeling like it. The hip pain had started to creep back in, and my knees felt kind of sore. I think. I still need to call and confirm that! And because of the coinciding of the return of my symptoms a...

SuperBetter: psoriasis
http://psoriasis.livejournal.com/230123.html
I don't know how many of you are familiar with Jane McGonigal or her SuperBetter game, but I was hospitalized last week with a pulmonary embolism and deep vein thrombosis due to the PICC line in my arm, and when my friend sent me a video about Jane, it made me feel better. This is the video that gives a short explanation about SuperBetter: http:/ www.youtube.com/watch? And this is the blog post that gives more info: http:/ blog.avantgame.com/2009/09/s. Post a new comment. We will log you in after post.

Confessions - Living With Crohn's
http://livinwithcrohns.livejournal.com/1826.html
Confessions - Living With Crohns. It's time to confess. For the last month, probably a bit longer, I've been taking a. Of Tylenol. As in, I'm approaching the 100,000mg mark (in the last 30 days). Sometimes, when the pain wasn't bad, I wouldn't take any. Other times, when the pain was really bad, I'd take as much as 2,500mg. No more of that! Hopefully they'll call in the prescription today and I can start taking it tomorrow. And as if that wasn't enough, I woke up with symptoms of what's probably a cold.
