hi, i have crohn's disease a type of IBD like Ulcerative colitis.
have you checked out the crohn's and colitis foundation of america site? they have info on diet, latest medications, surgery, coping skills, locating a local CCFA chapter, plus an online chat and 800# that is run by healthcare professionals M-F 9 am - 5pm (EST).

also, see if you can set up an appt. with a dietician at a a local hospital. they work w/different illnesses all the time and are very knowledgable w/what diet works when a pt. is flaring up with IBD.

Bland food only, little spices.
