Backgroynd: 25 years with this disease, but the past 2 years, my body has gone haywire. Changes in hormones? Currently taking melamine, folic acid, turmeric, vsl#3, and trying hemp oil. In major flare up, but don't want steroids or another life-long drug added to my regimen. I gave up coffee, diet soda, milk, and started yoga. Nothing is helping! Any new research? Great specialist suggestions in Dallas? Thanks in advance...

    I have been doing Keto with intermittent fasting in the mornings. Seems to help me a lot.

      Thank you...I'll read up on it. So you just skip breakfast and wait until noon or so to eat? Or, until dinner? Every other day or so? Thanks in advance.
