Hi Amato, That’s scary that you got Colitis after taking antibiotics for only 10 days. I think the most important part of doing fecal transplantation is to do it immediately after the donor has a bowel movement, before any of the good bacteria has a chance to die. The reason I say this is that I did the fecal transplantation only four times. Plus my granddaughter, being only six months old, pooed very little. I barely got any feces to do the fecal transplantation with. But the feces I got must have been filled with healthy bacteria, because the effect was immediate.   [End]

Hi Amato, I think it depends on why you have Colitis. I was on antibiotics for two years. I think that’s why the fecal transplantation worked. As for diet, I revamped my diet completely when I got Colitis. At the time, I was drinking and eating mostly fats--fructose milk teas, chocolate cookies, and chocolate. My changed diet did not stop my bleeding though. It was the fecal transplantation that halted my bleeding and immediately put me in remission. But my changed diet does keep me diarrhea and gas free now that I’m in remission. I eat more protein and carbohydrates now. I drink onl ...

I just wanted to give an update on my condition. I’m doing great, and I’ve been medicine free since I had the colonoscopy. I really owe it to the fecal transplantation I did earlier in the year. My stools are well-formed, and they are very long, like they were about 15 years ago.   [End]

Hi All, I’m posting this because fecal transplantation helped me. (See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fecal_transplant for more information about fecal transplantation.) Although fecal transplantation might not be the answer for everyone with Colitis, there is a possibility that it could help others like me. I took antibiotics for some two years about 10-15 years ago. I didn’t think antibiotics had anything to do with my Colitis. I believed my colon problems were due to poor eating habits: I had an addiction to milk chocolate and fructose milk teas. I was diagnosed with Colitis ...

What about milk substitutes? Is lactose-free or soy milk okay? And why ”yellow” cheese as opposed to non-yellow cheese? Of side note, I found that eggs helped my inflammation when I had the skin inflammation. And rice, which makes some people constipated, helps my stools to become better formed. I’m going to try Vitamin E. However, I read that Aloe Vera is a laxative (http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/aloe-vera/NS_patient-Aloe), so I don’t think I’m going to try that, at least not for now.   [End]

I was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis about two months ago and am on medication (Colozal, Prednisone, and Canasa (a suppository)) My condition has been steadily improving, and my doctor has been weaning me off of the Prednisone. I feel both hopeful that I can fix my problem and tired knowing that it won’t be easy. The reason I am hopeful is that I had a very serious skin inflammation disorder about 10-15 years ago and was on antiboitics for two years because of it. My inflammation went away completely and has not returned since I stopped eating all breads and cheeses. However, my die ...
