Hello everyone! I have been dealing with recurrent sores on my L side of my cheek for at least the past 3 weeks! Anybody else have issues with canker sores or just sores in their mouth and have any good ideas of what to do about treating them? It is annoying, but now becoming kind of a concern that it never seems to clear up! Thanks!

Hi Everyone,

 I´m always craving red meat. Did Dr. Brizman say anything about excessive meat consumption? I mean do you think I could have it almost daily or would that be contraproductive?

Hi everyone,

Ive been meaning to write my 9 month update but have been so all over the place & feeling pretty bad about it but i will soon:))) Anyway Dr. B added in 3 1000mg of D3 3x a day. My neurologist called & said my levels were dangerously low so we are giving it a try. It is definitely making my pain all crazy...on any given day my pain is an 8 then a 3-4 for some periods, very confused but also since the D started my vagina is inflamed,raw feeling & itchy. Has this happened to anyone else???? so uncomfortable!!!!

just a quick question. did anyone in here suffer from restless leg syndrome as a die-off symptom? my legs are freaking me out right now.

I woke up feeling really lovely today. The birds are chirping and the blossoms are hanging lusciously off the trees in my yard. The world is so beautiful, with or without illness. The beginning of spring has made me feel so grateful and I just wanted to share my gratitude with everyone on this site, everyone who has answered or read any of my posts...

So I suspect a serious hormonal imbalance causing my acne, my terrible mood swings (particularly before my period... but lately... ALL THE TIME) etc. I'm wondering how this has been addressed by Dr. B in treatment, is it something that just kind of regulates itself as the rest of the problem begins to balance out?

love

Hello!

So on list 1 and I can't do potatoes or the gluten elements because of the reactions I have with them. So I've been doing wild and brown rice for the past few weeks, but every now and then even that gives me a bad reaction.

Has anyone gone without carbs? Another part of the problem is just if I eat just a bit more than I should portion wise with the carbs I get terrible symptoms. I wonder if I should try to eliminate them and see if I feel better in general... but this also seems a little questionable because I am still underweight by a good ten pounds.

I wanted to share a website I just learned about www.ewg.org.  It helps choose everything from cleaning products to cosmetics based upon a rating of ingredients. I found it to be very useful and scary at the same time.  I have used the website to make more informed choices.  Hope it will help all my fellow IC suffers too:)

Hi, I'm wondering if anyone can help give me some advice about something, My initial appointment with Dr. B is April 17th.
