thanks so much for asking. It has been going okay. I have begun to taper my steroids and they must have really been helping b/c now I have begun to have some more stomach problems. I don't have my follow up appt until Tuesday so as of yet I haven't altered my diet in any way. I don't understand why they diagnose you with something and then make you wait 3 weeks to go in and discuss how to manage it. so it goes. I have bought soy milk so I am going to try that b/c I hear dairy can cause a bad flare up.
As far as nbe goes, I haven't lost any growth and am hoping that once I have this under control I will make some more progress. With my digestive tract being the way it is I often wonder how much of my herbs my body is actually absorbing. I took your recommendation and ramped everything up to 3000mg. its been a week and a half and they definitely feel heavy and full so I am excited about that. Even if the measuring tape doesn't show anything I am positive they are rounder if nothing else. thanks so much for all of your help. You and Isabelle have been a tremendous help for me. there is so much information on these forums that it can be hard to sort it all out and figure out what is going to work! I'll keep you posted....oh, any idea if the soymilk will interfere with my other herbs?
