Marcia/ Re: :Low Oxalate Diet...is it worth it?

[Guest guest]

I know it is a " catch 22 " but prune juice just REALLY flared me up!

What if it is keeping you in pain? Honestly, once I figured out all

of the foods that were flaring me up and gave them up, I managed to

have some pain-free time! What if you found out that giving up

chocolate and prune juice meant that you might be able to cut down on

the meds...or maybe even go to ones that don't cause you to be

constipated? I probably wouldn't have believed it but I was able to

see the cause and effect. I LIVED it. And if I hadn't accidentally

wound up with a load of pepper in my restaurant food last month, I

would be mostly pain-free right now.

Just speaking from my own experience.....I would love to see you

better!!

Have you ever tried taking magnesium supplements/vitamin? It really helps when

I'm constipated without eating a high oxalate food.
