Ulcerative Colitis

[Jura]

Hello there everyone , this is my first post and i hope you guys can help me out .

Like you noticed by the tittle its about ulcerative colitis i got it when i was 19 working in a freezer.

The odd thing is i was on a vegetarian diet at that time to lose some weight and boy did i lose like 40 kg after i got sick .

So it was not because of the food i established that i live in a village and we grow our own food all of it , it is pure and fresh .

Now my guess it is of high stress ;

- when i was a kid around 10 years old i broke my leg and my bone split in 8
different pieces it was a mes and till today i still feel pain in my leg and i can
sense every single shift in temperature in my leg , this brings me pain on a daily
basis .... i already adopted to my pain in my mind but seems my body still suffers

- second thing i get stress is the information the internet brought me i don't like
the knowledge i got i was more happy and healthy when i was stupid and in the
grid brain dead .

What i wish from this post is that someone can help me if he can if he controls it or knows someone who has success :

My current symptoms :
1. diarrhea followed by blood every time
2. it spread to my joints my left shoulder so far and my left chest side have hard time to breath can't sleep at night
3. cause of the diarrhea and blood i lost allot of iron in my blood was send to hospital for blood transfusion

For the first 3 years i was on conventional medicine just to give it a try they did not help me at all , they were able to stop the diarrhea and blood few times but it always came back and gave me horrible side effects from pills i almost died cause of some and they gave me for 3 days 50-60 pills each day so i wont die ... i do not want to go trough that knowing what i know ...

There is not much alternative medicine from where i come from and it is hard to find some good honest person who can help me i ask you and i beg you all please help in any way you can tell me your stories how you do it i suffer and i am in pain for the last 4 and half years i can't even cry anymore cause my joints and chest hurts if i move much i barely sleep i don't think i can hang on for long please i beg again help in any way...

Hi there,

I hope I can actually help you. My best friend has Ulcerative Colitis too and she has been managing hers through a specific diet. She too has experienced the same symptoms as yourself.

Unfortunately her diet is difficult to stick to because it is very limiting. She cannot eat anything that would produce any form of methane, plus when she is having a flare up (it still happens, but seems to be when she has deviated from the diet) she has to avoid anything that will aggravate the ulcerations in her colon...so things like seeds are a no no.

Here is the book and diet that she follows and it REALLY does work for her!

There is also a group on Facebook (if you have an account) for the "Specific Carbohydrate Diet", which is the diet that my friend follows and is the diet in the book I have forwarded to you. She has used the group as a resource for support and advice in order to stick to the diet as much as possible and to get ideas for what to eat :-) Have a look xx

[sheme]

I read some place or was it a news story that there is a doctor he washes the patients bowel out completely several times then he literally does a healthy donor bowel poo transfusion so that normal bowel bacteria balance replaces the old dysfunctional flora, this is a new treatment -the young lady they followed used to have a bowel motion many many times a day- after the treatment- she said her life was normal , I hope you can take encouragement from this news. You are getting better already my friend.

You've probably already come across this during your research, but if not, some new thinking on various inflammatory gut diseases are faecal transplants. (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-27503660) Sounds horrendous, but it was reported by the BBC (and others) so it must be true!

By all accounts it's had some very successful results...

Good luck,

There is a forum where they discuss the effectiveness of turmeric. I have had colon problems, polyps mainly, and since then am using turmeric in rice and other dishes. I don't believe the capsules work, but just a tea spoon of the spice in a cooked dish over time will calm the inflammation.

[mpod001]

Rice can be bad for Ulcerative Colitis. You can make 'Golden Milk' using turmeric. However cow milk is not advised on this diet, so my friend uses almond milk! My friend uses turmeric a lot :)

[mpod001]

Oh I completely forgot to mention this too, my friend takes a supplement called 'Glutamine' which has too helped her :)

All I can say is WOW. I read the BBC article and immediately phoned a friend who has had severe Crohn's disease for years, and is now bedridden because of it. This is all very hopeful news.

So you wanted to add some more alternative theories to the bunch?

You did not described your situation well. It says in your post that everything is as it should be but is not. feeding correctly, doing correctly but pain is here..
It would rather remind me on ... i got this knowledge, but i don't like it, and i would rather be stupid.

or i got this beautifull thing called life but i would rather feel pain.

It is my brother, it is all in yourself, there is no external cure, there is a lot of external substances tho, but won't benefit much.
From personal experience i agree there is tons of alternative medicine people here and i got to know few of very interesting ones, more interesting point is they all got it mostly if not right they are very close.
there is one which confirmed removes people dioptrics with talking to them! it worked every single time.. with talking, yes...

dr.Ante Pavlovic is probably well known to you as eccentric personality who is through media projected as a completely mad person...
yet this dude walks ONLY barefoot, eats only raw food, he gave up on system and does not cooperate with "the machine", he made kid walk from wheelchair, he openly says that he would kill any medicine man who touches human back without prior knowledge which modern medicine is not aware of... and he had problem with his open statements...

Im not suggesting him to you and you probably know he knows to beat his patients :D

But what i'm making here is not commercial for any of those alternatives or any of those you could collect along the way. Im here to represent your consciousness, and remind you that you are all powerfull.
Do not get tricky and overfeed with that feeling, as mostly it is common human pitfall when power eats itself..

i know.. easier said than done, right?

so rather than adding to your (probably overloaded) bunch on info, or suggesting person that could vanish you problem i'm just gonna leave this sticky note here as a reminder.

One wonderful person which was involved in spiritual and herbalistic healing here once told me interesting thing when i asked her why she stopped to personally involve in healing of those in need.
She told me that when people get sick it is equivalent of their mind state,she told me that actually their mind is poisoned, usually by itself and when you help someone, what you actually do is remove their chance to be AWARE of situation.
So basically everytime you heal someone you take his chance to realise.
And there is that 'reality' slap which will make shure that sickness comes back in some other form. because HEALER CAN NOT HEAL SOURCE, source is yours to heal, he can be PART of healing process but he cannot heal what he didn't screwed.. and that what screwed first time, likes to screw again and again...

so maybe you don't like your current state of illusion which you brave call truth and probably would bravely defend it, so if you don't like it, why don't you try let it go, maybe it changes it's shape, maybe you hold to it too tight?

Hello Jura,

Sorry to know about your condition. It sounds truly awful.

If there is a health food store in your vicinity, there are three supplements that should help you a great deal:

1 - probiotics - at least 70 billion CFU daily - the store staff should be able to help you with this

2 - psyllium hulls - 2 tablespoons mixed in a large glass of water - this mixture thickens fast so it must be ingested as soon as it is mixed - this can be taken at any time day or evening

3 - chia seeds - 1 tablespoon in a glass of water -this also can be taken at any time - stir the seeds in the glass of water and let it sit for at least one hour until the seeds become saturated with water and all you can see in the glass are enlarged seeds as they will suck up all the water

And of course, you must follow a totally non inflammatory diet.

Good luck and best wishes for recovery and healing.

[Tesseract]

Try taking 1 Magnesium capsule (400 mg) and one vitamin D capsule (10 000 IU) each day. I did this when I was sick (digestive system) and it helped me a lot when changes to diet were not having any effect. In general eat a little less than you would like, and avoid alcohol (you are probably already doing this...).

Try and get several days away from any stress to help your breathing difficulties, and plenty of rest lying down as comfortably as you can. But also, see if a light 20 minute walk each day gives you any relief. I had this problem myself once, and it takes several days to slowly disappear. I think it is mainly due to stress. If it doesn't go away soon, you may want to get an oxygen cylinder to help you breathe easier. Best of luck!

Yes it is stress and can lead to IBS Irritable Bowel Syndrome, eventually leading to crones, which is weakening or pockets in the colon that hold fecal matter and cause cancers. So flush baby flush w/natural probiotics after you flush because the bad bacteria and balanced system is out of whack. Then reduce acidic foods as stress already creates more acids. If your stomach has an ulcer, goat's milk will seal it to keep the burn of stomach acids from hurting you. Now, about that stress... your body is telling you to chill out or at least handle stress like satelites around your world, NOT in it.:wizard:
Recipe: "NEGATIVE OUT/AWAY POSITIVE/IN/COME. Sometimes the energy suckers in the family that aren't awake that you love, can make you worry inside and stress you there. It's cause is "holding chit in" and avoiding confrontational or negative episodes around them. So....as one Stress survivor to another, you can do it that easily, because when you look at it, we're here to teach them to think, survive and thrive. WE can lead them to water, but can't make them drink, give them lots of books, yet can't make them think. WE must leave little curiosity bread crumbs in spiritual knowledge, and skills to take take of family, that others who need the service need. You can do it, I've faith that if you realize, that your in control of how much or how little drama you want interrupting "your flow", you'll do just fine.

Spend time in nature, by the water sometimes to 'exhale" the stinking thinking and get in touch w/Creator.

I'm no doctor but what you're describing is diverticular disease (actually diverticulitis (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diverticulitis)), NOT crohn's disease (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crohn%27s_disease). Is there any evidence that IBS leads to crohn's? These are all different conditions, the descriptions, causes (if known) and symptoms are all easy to check on the web.

Probiotics are reported to help some people and won't do any harm.

As far as I can discover, cancer is not a often an outcome of most of the above conditions, although I know someone with crohn's who did have a successful op for a small cancer. He was told it was a type associated with his type of crohn's.

Please beware of well-meaning but inaccurate information posted on non-medical forums. One's health is important and a proper diagnosis can then be followed by alternative treatments if you wish to go down that route.

Nick

PS: I linked to Wikipedia rather than a proper medical website because I'm sure it is accurate enough for this level of discussion.

[Jura]

thanks you helped allot .. i know i hold on too tight ... its hard to forget when you suffer each day not so easy to get it out of your head :// i will try and relax a bit...

[Octavusprime]

As many have stated probiotics and fecal transplants have been gaining in popularity for many types of gut issues (IBS, Colitis, etc).

Here is a good article about DIY fecal transplants. There are companies working on pills that can be used instead of the enima but I'm not sure if it is available in market yet. Good luck as this runs in my family and it is a terrible disease.

I work with the speaker in this video, and I completely produced this video :) -- there is some excellent info for natural treatment of IBS IBD and UC. For more info on the diseases in general, parts 1 and two can be found for that. I hope this helps!

for the bleeding ,, slippery elm, it will allow healing where its bleeding,,, it checks the diarrhea too:)

There is good info to help out short term, but check out the gluten aspect to all this.
I don't have the links right now, but gluten really does have a link with your problems..

[The Truth Is In There]

in ulcerative colitis there's an energy blockage in the digestive tract. if that is not removed little you do will help, and nothing will heal the condition.

what has to be done is removing the energy blockage. once energy can flow again the body will start to heal and eventually all symptoms will disappear.

the blockage can have different causes. if you can determine a certain traumatic event after which the condition developed it is very likely that this event is the cause for the blockage.

if you don't know anybody who can help with the emotional release of the trauma there may be a way to forcefully unblock it. build yourself an orgone accumulator, sit in there 2-3 times a day and recharge your body. at some point it may happen that the described blockage (and others) are released automatically due to the increased energy supply. even if not, the increased energy will certainly do good, enough to improve and possibly even heal the disease.

at any rate, the problems will lessen and perhaps go away if the energy supply for the cells in your digestive tract is sufficient again. the cells won't excessively degenerate anymore, no tons of bacteria and fungi that help with that degeneration will develop and instead a healthy digestive flora will once again be established. it's quite easy if the underlying cause is understood and removed, and not just the symptoms treated.

[Polyamine]

If I were in your position, I would try to determine the cause of the IBS. Most likely, you have some type of parasite that you contracted from eating raw vegetables that were contaminated. There are many types of stool tests for parasites, I'd search for a reliable one as many aren't reliable. I'd start visiting parasite forums and reading what others say about their condition.

You also have a proliferation of unwanted bacteria in your GI tract and that needs to change. Eating raw, organic vegetables will help but a probiotic is needed. I prefer Ortho Biotic as one to use but alternating daily with one like Florajen3 would be a good choice. Your dietary intake needs to change and a food log needs to record everything you eat. When you have flare ups, go back 3 days and pin point what you ate that caused the issue. Depending on how much you want to do to heal yourself, there are other things that can be done to better your health. It just depends on what you are willing to do to get better.

i explained the cause above. parasites are not the cause of anything but a result. no parasite can live in a healthy body because the energetic environment is not supportive for parasites.

first comes the lack of vital energy. the cause for that has to be found and eliminated.
then comes cellular breakdown because of that lack of energy.
then microorganisms develop from the disintegrating cells and help with further breakdown of the degenerating physical matter.
this increases the longer the lack of energy persists. thus the condition spreads and becomes more and more severe.

to return back to health the missing energy has to be supplied.
this will stop the cell disintegration which in turn eliminates the unwanted microorganisms because they can't survive in an energized environment. it is their job to break down matter.

I would agree with you The Truth Is In There, and I would add that my suggestion would be to deal with it on all levels simultaneously. Finding and cleaning the cause of the effect (that is why it all started in the first place) and at the same time helping your body to start healing by eating (and drinking) properly for your current condition.
Sometimes finding a reason is not so easy, simply because we don't know the right tools, we might have strong limiting belief system or we are so low in vital energy that we find it hard to reach out. It is a process during which we learn about ourselves and we let go of what is damaging us.
As far as I know Holographic Kinetics is one of the best holistic healing techniques for a fast and powerful healing of our issues. Not available in Croatia yet, I believe.

Regarding the physical help for you body. Eating raw didn't mean that you were eating healthy for the condition you were in. Sometimes the intestines and the stomach are so damaged that digesting raw food takes more energy from the body than to get anything out of it. The right combinations of food for your body at present and the knowledge of alkaline-acidic is also very important. It is not as easy as saying you should eat this, don't eat that, take this take that, because we do not have the same physical bodies and each one of us is different.
Also during your conventional medicine treatment all the pills you've taken damaged your intestines, i. e. immune system. When you stopped taking them you didn't' just recover the flora and fauna of your intestines in a heart bit. Probably the opposite.

Jura, in your situation it is actually very possible that you are eating very inappropriate and it is doing you more harm, and you might need to consider going to cooked SIMPLE food for some time (veggies, fruit - not all veggies or fruit is advisable!, no meat or fish, no dairy products).
This is really a very general look at it. In your particular situation and without a proper knowledge it is not so easy to do it. Have in mind that when we are low in vital energy, everything we eat, drink or put on our skin! is very important. Fresh blended aloe vera and lemon with warm water a few times a day might be a useful start to help your physical body. I would say that taking supplements in your condition is of no use at all.
What you need is a proper guidance of somebody that has a holistic knowledge, or learn where to get pieces of information that will put together your puzzle.


I wouldn't say that there is 'not much alternative medicine from where you come from'.
