i only get attacks when i'm feeling thrifty and decide to eat "cheap" raw salads for awhile. fiber hurts me..

Yes, feeling better today thanks and I have 2 more days to go on the Rx. I never had a problem with salads. This flare, I actually lowered my roughage before I got it and wasn't eating enough vegetables. Tons of dairy (cream, butter) and cheese.

My cholesterol is up. 244. But my HDL is 69. So that's good.
