Someone who uses TSO to keep his ulcerative colitis in remission was able to weather a bout of the diarrhea-causing Xibalba COVID variant without it exacerbating his intestinal disease.
{{Quote|indent}}I have been without Ulcerative Colitis symptoms now for more than 1.5 years - thanks to taking 1,250 TSO every 2 weeks. My body has recovered largely from the previous flare and has rebuilt itself well even if I am now 71 years old. So I figured it was time to travel again. I went to Yucatan Mexico, an area of the world that I know well. I spent the first 10 days in a small Mayan village of 300 people surrounded by the jungle. Then I moved for another 10 days to a small city in the heart of the Mayan world.
I began feeling ill on Day 2. I had a bout of intense diarrhea for one day - reminiscent of colitis of course - followed with fever. My wife suggested I do a Covid test. I agreed but I was certain it was a reaction caused by lots of unusual foods including gluten foods which I avoid at home. The test came out positive! We got the Xibalba Covid variant which is common now in the Yucatan peninsula. That variant is known to affect the intestinal tract and provoke diarrhea.
For 5 days I was ill with fever, cough, loss of smell, skin sensitivities etc. My intestines were hurting, my stools had mucus in them. I came back home to Canada testing negative but with my intestines still dysfunctional. The inflammation created pressure on my lower back and I have been feeling pain for several days.
One week later, while it is not entirely resolved at this time, I feel 95% OK. I realized today that in spite of the Covid and its effect on my fragile intestinal tract, at no time I had blood in my stool and no sense of urgency either. In other words, it held well and I seem to do no worse than others with this variant. It did NOT trigger Ulcerative Colitis (which was my biggest fear), so all is well.
