Even if I really really wanted to, I couldn't eat much broccoli or beans due to the restrictions of my renal diet. I'm in stage 2/3 kidney failure. Having more than one autoimmune disorder makes it difficult to just wish it all away.
Mine doesn't show on 'scope because it's in the small intestine, which is a little different than Crohn's in the colon; there's more malsorption issues and the bleeding is a little harder to deal with - a Rowasa enema doesn't quite reach! But I'm not controlled by any of my serious conditions - they're more like inconveniences to be worked around.
