Dear Felicia, I am a moderator for NF.com and am sorry to hear that your husband is hospitalized and that you are not receiving helpful advice from his doctor.The good news is the doctor is recognizing the importance of
fiber (and hopefully soon your husband will be back to a healthy full
fiber diet), Meanwhile, the recommendations after an acute flare up is to let the tissues
recover by not irritating, so your doctor's guidance TEMPORARILY is standard care.
