I’ve ulcerative colitis and it’s flared up. Medical advice is no to low fibre, no veg unless it’s boiled soft like a mush, no garlic, no onions, no mushrooms, no red meat, no sweet corn. I can only eat white meat, fish, white rice, potatoes like mash, white breads like a loaf, bagels and brioche. I’m not being a picky eater, I literally can’t eat some things because they’ll fuck with my gut and make my disease worse. Fuck inconsiderate people.
That sounds tough. I once knew someone who had a medical issue with severe dietary restrictions like you, and a tone deaf coworker was like “haha at least you can lose weight, sounds great!” FFS
Tell me about it. My flare up started months ago and I’ve dropped a clothing size. Everything I have is baggy on me now. It’s been so bad that I’m being put onto immune suppression medication in the hope I don’t have flares again. I also have autism traits like sensory issues and being unable to make eye contact as well as poor reading of social ques.

I’m really sorry, I had colitis and it was awful. I really hope you find some relief from it.
