Last week I spent all weekdays at home eating healthy food prepared by my wife.
Yesterday, Saturday, we had a BBQ, beer & grilled meat.
This week, probably because of my healthy diet, I had almost perfect bowel movements: once to three times a day, completely solid, and of course no bloody stools, etc.
The other day you commented, “Have you been to the hospital now?” In my case, I had an endoscopy in May of this year and have not been to the hospital since I heard the results. I have not taken any Pentasa or any intestinal medications. I take 1 or 2 grams of “Indigo naturalis” only when I have diarrhea due to drinking too much. I take a spoonful of “Indigo naturalis” in my mouth with a glass of water and gulp it down. I am quite familiar with it, I don’t taste anything bad, and I don’t make any mistakes like getting stuck in my throat. I think those who have difficulty swallowing take it in edible oblongs or capsules.
Also, I work a desk job most of the time, so I try to climb about 10 floors of stairs in my apartment when I go home to exercise (if I am not drunk…). I also do some light muscle training after meals and stretching after the floor to make sure I don’t get too much exercise.
Somehow, I would like to live a healthy life so that I will not have a recurrence of ulcerative colitis for the rest of my life.
