Thank you, all of you!!!!
I am so learning, learning, learning. He feels like his pain in general is reduced. It's been a big enough relief for him that he is continuing to eat lots of whole foods plus dairy. He is incredibly active and we are working hard to keep enough fat going in. He also eats lots of fruit.
Yes, as a mon, the last thing I want to do is compromise him nutritionally, so we are keeping a daily log of everything he eats and any supplements he takes and any pain he has, and how big it is to bring with June 22nd. I've read lots about how there's not much evidence about diet helping but I've also heard enough people say it has....and I am aware that not one thing helps everyone.
He has no bowel issues at this time, which is great.
Thank you again for all the helpful info!!!
