back to normal

Well after a tough 2 years of bad flares to moderate flares -1 time thinking i was back to normal,i am now back to normal.My stools are perfect for the last 2 months,i'm only on 6mp[100mg] and folic acid.I was on assorted meds during the 2 years.Hope you all find some peace and serenity-God bless   

yes, wishing you a long remission! i like to hear of others coming out of this nasty disease and getting their lives back - it gives the rest of us hope!

That is awesome! I hope you have many years of remission! :)

Congratulations! Hope you stay in remission for a long, long time.

You know i have had U.C since 1985[i'm 52 now] and i had a moderate flare in '86.From '86 to 2008 i had minor 'D' or some blood sometimes but nothing that would stop me from living a normal life-usually a ROWASA A FEW NIGHTS and it would stop any imflamation.After getting a bad case of pneumonia in sept '08 life started going downhill for me,i got c-diff,then over the next few months my colitis got worse.I always felt that after being in such a long remission that i was going to get back to normal no matter what i was going thru-but believe me when i had 3 seperate times where i could not hold #2 in i began to wonder about what direction my colitis would take.Now i'm only on 100mg of 6mp,i started taking it in Aug of '09 and it took 7 months before i started seeing signs of getting better,i had 2 or 3 times where i had to stop the 6mp because of a low blood count[i was up to 150mgs at one point].Life is good today hopefully it stays that way,but again i usually felt that i had a good chance chance of getting back to normal-did my somewhat positive thinking have something to do with me getting better?i hope it did-GOOD LUCK TO YOU ALL-GOD BLESS

Thanks wavey,it's nice to let people know that you can come out of a bad flare and poop like most of the world.Pooping is now a welcome event for me.Good luck to everyone
