Hi everyone , I am new here .
I am 20 male . Having UC for 28 months. Taking mesacol 3600 mg , azoran ,folvite calcium and multivitamin tabs , antacid. No dairy , less sugar, less fried food.
Fist of all , Everyday morning I take cyra -IT antacid still whole lots and lots of gas is filled inside me . Tell me some solution to reduce it , 2nd whenever I pass gas ( I cant stand and pass) , even in laying down position , this causes me a sudden urge to go for a motion and when I go very less amount of stool comes. This happen to me many times during the day and night time. Please tell me some solution so that even uf I pass gas...after than I dont go to washroom urgently. I dont have any bleeding and pain occurs only when I have to go to washroom or only when I am going to pass the gas

It sounds like your Ulcerative Colitis is flaring. Urgency and flatulence are common during U.C. flares. Are you seeing a gasteroenteroligist-specialist doctor? Often we are given prednisone/prednisolone to help us control our flares.

What is your azoran/azathioprine dosage?

Ask your doctor if mesacol/asacol/mesalamine can be taken at 4,800mgs.

Have you ever taken mesalamine/rowasa/salofalk/pentasa 4,000mg enemas? I would ask about those too!

Yes seeing a GI , azoran 50 mg , but I am not bleeding no mucous and not pain so dont know how sever my flare is, so can you tell me a medicine or some lifestyle changes that can stop this urgent bowel movement. I have tried taking enemas but was not able to so I dont take it. I take suppostiries mesalamine one.

Your flare is severe if you cannot trust farts, and have urgency. Flares are often treated with steroids (prednisone/prednisolone).

Azoran 50mgs is a very low dosage.

Unfortunately a severe flare isn't easily changed by life style changes.

I agree with iPoop. I would call your doctor and discuss. You're on a pretty low dose of mesalamine.
