Something next to normal, that's the thing I'd like to try

Thanks. I'm sure it'll get better eventually - I'm just impatient after four months. :-P I've been reading a lot, and it's sort of helpful, but my digestive tract is still so inflamed that digesting anything is going to hurt, no matter what I eat. The only thing I can really do is try to stick to the stuff that hurts less and wait for the meds to start working. (Either that, or I go to the hospital and they feed me via IV, but I'd rather avoid that.)
