Soon! Ive had 3 attacks in the past. I now no longer eat beef, pork, or lamb. I only eat cheese occasionally.
After stopping beef, etc., I have not had a full blown attack. (Avoid foods that stay in your colon for a long time. Foods that are hard to digest.)
Ive had almost attacks after eating corn and also pistachios. If you even feel a bit of that pain beginning to start, go immediately to a liquid diet and sometimes you can stop it from progressing. My doc says, stomach pain plus fever means I go to the ER. So, when the pain starts, monitor that temperature.
If you want to ask me any questions, feel free to message me.
