      Update: It's been roughly a month since my FMT. Overall, a great success - the C-Diff was cleared up and my overall symptoms improved. So much improvement, in fact, that I have reduced my Xeljanz prescription from 10mg 2x daily to 5mg 2x daily. Focusing now on slowly expanding my diet to include a wider range of fruits, vegetables, and probiotics foods.

    My personal preferance is to stop and stay away from any meds, Its been 6 months I've stopped taking those. I did a huge research and watched lots of youtube videos who cured IBD using a strict diet. I follow Jimmy Patel Thumbson, Kenny Honnas and Dane Johnshon. Now I'm not fully cured, but my symtoms are slowly fadding away, very less blood, and less urgency. I didn't follow any strict diet as of now, thinking to buy absorb plus and continue a strict diet next week onwards. Any suggestions are highly apriciated.
