I know....my complaints are quite puzzling to me as well!
My gastroentologist said it's my large intestine that is giving me all the problems. It is very irritated for some reason. She cannot pinpoint reason why....dx of colitis, gastritis and IBS. I cannot attribute it to NSAIDS because I started getting like this during my pregnancy in 2000. My stomach is so tender sometimes it hurts to just touch it when I lay down. It is not a good feeling. My gastro said it's the colitis and gastritis that cause the tenderness. I dont get heartburn or anything like that .....Thank the Lord! Janet and I chatted last time and I thought perhaps it is more food allergies that I suffer from and with the AS they just magnify......who knows!

I have been stayin away from the red meat and eating plenty of fish, chicken and fruit. This is going to get expense......my girls attack all my fruit everytime I open my fridge!! Heheh! I give them their bin with all their goodies, but somehow....Momma's stuff always looks more enticing to them in the end!!

I am DEFINITELY happy to hear that I can eat Avocadoes!!! Yahooey!!
I love them......and am glad they will be on my shopping list tomorrow!!

take care.....




Toodles!
