HI
I have six years colitis
the last year I noticed a change at the time which I can wait until running to the toilet
i can wait 4-5 minute with struggle
I remember that when I was ok without flare i could wait more time
now i need to go fast to the toilet
I am 26 years old
what would happen when i will be 50 years old
maybe something could help me that i can wait longer?

Hi Zinov,
I too have noticed this with this flare.. Not that I have ever really been out of a flare!
I would suggest trying fibre, I also eat porridge in the morning. .I think it helps, certainly helps with the consistency, the more lose my stool is the more likely I will have an accident.
For all the years Ive had this disease, this is the only year Ive been like this too.. Accidents, a few times in the past month, really gets me down!!

Good luck my friend! - Try fibre if you havent already!

does that mean you won't even try rectal meds? They might help?? urgency is a symptom of a flare, but it also a symptom of IBS.

What's the consistency of the bm you're having...and how often do you go during the day?

You could ask the doc for an antispasmodic or if you're not flaring, you might be able to use a small dosage of imodium.

Another option is to add some fibre supplements as well as pribiotics.
