   I have Crohns and was on flagyl. Is there a reason you think you will get convulsions? Any risk factors? Most people are on this medication and don’t ever get such serious side effects. I’ve also known a few other people to take this medicine, lol and my dog as well, and they never had those side effects. To tell you the truth, the side effects of the other medications you were probably on for crohn’s had worse side effects. Is there a reason you’re going on flagyl instead of something else? Don’t be so scared – if everyone got side effects like that no one would prescribe you that medication because the side effect would be worse than the crohn’s itself! If you didn’t have that side effect today, I wouldn’t tell you that you’d never get it. But probability says you won’t ever get it. Relax, and if you’re worried, talk to your doctor. Your doctor will assure you that he/she prescribed it because they thought it would make you better, that side effect is super rare.

   For Crohn’s Disease and any other irritable bowel syndromes (IBS), the cause is an imbalance of the good and bad bacteria in your intestinal tract. Too much bad, not enough good. First, clean up your diet. No junk food, processed foods, sodas, coffee, and canned juices. Eat whole foods only, lots of fruits and veggies and cut back on the meat, including chicken, and drink 2/3 your body weight in ounces of water per day. Second, go to your local health food store and pick up Flora Floressence Detox (liquid) and do a whole body detox for two weeks. Third, also at your health food store, pick up Natren’s Healthy Trinity (in the refrigerated section). This is the top quality probiotics that your body is severely lacking. You may need to take at least two capsules of the Healthy Trinity per day until the symptoms are gone.

   When you take a prescription antibiotic for any IBS conditions, the antibiotic will kill most of the bad bacteria and it will also kill all the good bacteria. This situation can lead to intestinal yeast infections. And if the antibiotic didn’t kill ALL of the bad bacteria the first time around, the second time around it comes back with a vengeance.

   At my health food store, we have cleared many customers of IBS conditions using the Floressence and the Natren’s Healthy Trinity. Give it a try.

   My son was diagnosis with Crohn’s disease over 2 years ago. the doctor wanted to put him on Humira which is an expensive drug with life threating serious side affects. We did some research and came up with a new plan to combat this problem. This is what we found out.
   The liver is producing too much bile that is toxic to the digestive tract. The types of foods you need to eat are those that DO NOT create excessive acid or bile that help in digestion (simply put). The bile is normal unless it is in large quanity or toxic
   Your body is high in toxins that you need to remove and stop feeding into the problem by the foods you consume.

   1.) “Foods to eat” : water purified, fish, eggs, potatoes,rice, white bread,meat ground up fine or chewed well, skinless chicken cut fine, tortillas, broth, noodles plain with a little butter, plain yogurt with no extra ingredients, rice milk(rice dreams-Walmart) cherrios rice crispies or chex, and ‘most important’ at each meal and as a snack, legume’s black beans, kidney, pinto, buttered,refried, with no lard or spices except salt to start. Goats milk(found in a can) Sunshine and D’3, Iron supplements(in moderation)
   if you are anemic.
   2.) “Foods to avoid!”: dairy!,milk!,chips!,processed foods of any kind, soda ,msg,sugar,corn, corn syrup,corn sweeteners,wheat products,sweeteners of any kind, coffee, teas, cottage cheese,sauces, read the back labels (you are going to be surprised) for added ingredients any thing thats added, adds to your body’s toxic level. NO artificial sweeteners. foods that produce too acid to break down the foods you eat.
   3.) ‘Foods to eat’: in moderation after you stop bleeding and start gaining weight or are having no discomfort : fruits,salads,steak,venison,peanut butter or almond butter, A multi-vitamin with minerals with 100% RDA (not large dose’s of any multi. and 2x daily) of all of the B’s, hard cheese, soy milk,well cooked vegetables Psyillium powder.
   The beans are a water soluble fiber that aborb bile and remove the toxins in your body,then the liver will produce more bile but less toxic(simplified for lack of space).
   This is not an all inclusive list and your Doctor will disagree with the elimination of drugs, all removal of drugs should be done slowly if you decide to stop taking them, but they will add to your body’s toxic level as you continue take them. which will make your crohn’s worse. I am not a specialist in any field or giving medical advice. I also hired Karen Hurd at a fraction of the cost to teach my son to diet properly but you can go to her web site and get free information, but I recommend you pay her for a short time to get you healthy and on a routine faster. Stress will make it worst so exercise
   and relax. Most importantly Faith,Hope,and Prayer, you will get better. God is faithful what ever the results.
   E-mail me if you have any questions and I can help.
