Your UC

Hi Sheldon,

I'm about to try the vitamin E enema (and your recommended diet). I scrolled through a lot of the messages posted already, but I have several questions. I'm hoping you can spend some time to answer them. (1) I have moderate left-side UC (about 30cm from distal end); have you had people similar to my situation try the vitamin E enema and have it work (i.e. will it only work for mild UC)? (2) how much water (volume-wise; in mL or tbsp. if possible) should I use in the enema? (3) What kind of UC did you have? (i.e. proctitis, left-side colitis, pancolitis, etc.) and How bad was it? (i.e. mild, moderate, severe)? I just want to know, to compare to my own situation. (5) I'm assuming pure d-alpha tocopherol (without the racemic mixture) is ok?

Thanks
