Enema Question

Hi Guys,

Hoping someone could help me out. I’ve been on Saloflak enema’s for the last 2/3 months and find them working very well the last couple of weeks. I take one every night. I usually have one BM a day, max two! Mainly solid with no blood. I have no real urgency or pains etc. I feel like I’m in remission but I’m not sure.

Sometimes in the morning I have some of the enema on my stool (which I’ve seen from previous posts is totally normal) however my question is would I be in remission and still see the enema on my stool? I might have no enema on my stool for days then out of the blue some mornings I see some. Is there a reason why I’m not absorbing it? Is this a sign I’m still inflamed?

Any help would be great, especially from the people that use enema’s for maintenance. I was hoping to taper down to 6 enema’s a week but I’m so afraid it will start to come back.

Thank you 😊

Hi Quincy,

Thanks for your reply.

Yes I’m off the Pred a month thank god. So as you are in remission and take the enema’s as maintenance you still might see some enema on the stool? I’m hoping it’s not mucus but don’t think it is.

This morning I had a slightly loose stool for some reason I’m hoping it might have just been something I ate or drank over the weekend. I’m finding the enema’s good but hoping to taper down a bit it can be a pain doing it every night but good that’s it working.

Thanks 😊

Great thanks Quincy il start after my period next week and hopefully I’ll stay as good as I feel now.
