Hey guys, this is kind of random but I was just wondering if anybody else has experienced this.
For the past couple of months I have been in a really good place. I'm not in remission but RIGHT there by it. I don't remember the last time I had blood in my stool. I only go to the bathroom once or twice a day and no diarrhea. I do occasionally have bad mornings still with cramping but it goes away by the afternoon. I went in just 3 weeks ago for a colonoscopy and my doctor said she had never seen my colon look that good and she saw NO ulcers. I do have to be extremely careful with what I eat because I feel that I am pretty sensitive to certain foods. With that being said, I ruled out Chick Fil A a while ago because I noticed that it would make my stomach feel weird and give me slight diarrhea. Nothing horrible, but I know I shouldn't eat it. I am in college and had to stay on campus later than normal and was starving and my campus doesn't have many options. My only option was Chick Fil A so I just got some regular chicken nuggets. I felt okay the rest of the day except my stomach was kind of rumbling. The next day, I finally went to the bathroom and it was all blood and diarrhea. When I went for a second time a few minutes later, the blood was significantly lessened and now I don't have any blood again. I did not have any cramps or urgency or frequency prior to going.
Could it be that what i ate just irritated my colon on it's way out? It's just really random
I am currently taking 4 Lialda a day and just started Remicade infusions (I have only had one infusion so far). I have been in a flare since March of 2015
