Re: Steve: Salicylates

Hi Myra, a few questions on your posting:

Where can I get this list? Or have I already seen it in one form or

other?

I have a general problem with these " test diets. " Right now I'm in

remission and almost nothing gives me hives - not eating sugary foods,

not banging myself anywhere, whereas when I'm hiving, these things bring

on almost instant hives. So how do I do a test diet at a time when I have

no hives? Or must I wait until I'm in a hive-mode (please, God, may it

never come)?

Thanks,

Esther

Dear Busy Myra, I would like more information on salicylates. I would be so

thankful. I feel as if this and maybe the UTI maybe of some use. I am

working on the dental problems. It has proven true about the tomato and tomato

sauces. I break out. Also I have noticed coffee maybe one of the things that

is not good for me. Before UC I drank a lot of coffee dailey. Lots. When I

went

into the hospital and when I went on steroids I did not drink more that 1 or

2 cups

a day. No taste for it. Sunday was a stressful day and i had 4 cups. I have

broked

out on my legd and stomach . So, back to 1 or 2 at the most a day. I really

appreciate all the love and info you give us. Hugs back to you. Carolyn
