the appointment was alright. I was a little upset because I was supposed to have cut fiber out of my diet for the few weeks after my diagnosis but no one told me. I was also told there is no need to alter my diet unless I have a flare up. I am just to take the medicine for the rest of my life. I explained to her that I wanted to control it by diet but she said that was not an option. I did, however, talk to the guy that owns my gym. he has a nutrition degree and has agreed to meet with me to discuss this. He told me that it can be controlled by how I eat so now I am just waiting to hear what he has to say and will decide where to go from there. I'm not sure what I have such an aversion to taking the meds. I guess b/c I feel there is just too much they don't know about a lot of these treatments. It fixes one thing and destroys another and they have no idea. I keep hearing about all of these women who took antidepressants while they were pregnant and a good number of their infants were born with heart defects. I guess I just want to be in control. Maybe I am just a control freak. 8)
On the nbe side of things, I think I may have grown another 1/4". tomorrow if my actual measuring day so we'll see. I added in MSM yesterday as well.
