Currently i'm taking probiotics, collidol silver and fish oil aswell as a multivitamin.

The medication i'm on is humira, mathatraxate

My diet is pretty simple no grains so i don't eat bread products, no pasta no sweets

I eat white rice chicken, fish , meat veggies not alot just mainly carrot avacado green beans and butternut squash thats all i can tolerate

I'm still working out what fruits i can tolerate 1 that i can tolerate is very ripe banana.

I thought fiber supplements were no good for people with crohn's as it can increase your bm's

darkangel wrote:A gentle fiber supplement that includes both soluble and insoluble fiber can actually help normalize bowel movements. In your case, fiber combined with plenty of water could help bulk up stools, improve consistency and make them easier and more comfortable to pass. If you choose to try this, start slowly and work your way up to a full dose... see how your body responds.

would this also help with mucas
