Difficult to treat, for sure. You might purchase PLAIN, dried Turmeric! The
capsules in the health food, store, that I have seen are usually mixed with
something else. In the past, that mixed with a little mayo, horseradish,
etc., and spread on a radish, a crisp cracker, etc. (about 1/4 tsp MAX!) has
really done the trick.
However, I would also see if her medication can be "lowered" at all, perhaps
she is getting a toxic reaction, that starts with diarreahea, but that would
have to be checked out. Don't disregard that, though, because that might be
the case...or might not!
