This will be a short post.... but again, this has been a glorious week! I'm still having solid stools, and almost not cramping, mucus, or urgency. The only difference between my current bowel movements and what I remember them to be before I got sick is that when I have to go, I have to go soon (like within 1 or 2 minutes -- which is a great improvement over the 5 second dash to the toilet I was doing a couple weeks ago). And, I have a little bit of mucus and a little bit of cramping sometimes, but not always.
I'm down to 10mg daily of prednisone. Each time I drop my dose, I get a little blood in my stool for a couple of days, but then it goes away.
I'm doing GREAT!
My little friends are helminths! Helminthic therapy is the controlled introduction of small doses therapeutic intestinal parasites for the purpose of modulating the human autoimmune system. This blog tracks my progress, starting with my inoculation on May 18, 2011 at the Worm Therapy Clinic in Tijuana, Mexico.
Did you get a microscope to do an egg count to make sure you have a viable population?
