What's this about Asacol spots?

jamo ooo1...NMcP gets these purple spots

It's so weird. The asacol also leaves little purple spots on everything. It's not blood, it's just these weird little spots. I read on another forum that the purple stains are pretty common. I also read the literature that comes with the prescription and apparently it doesn't always dissolve. The worst thing about the sulfasalazine was the bright yellow urine. At least I didn't have to scrub the toilet after every time I went when on Sulfasalazine. This is driving me crazy! I'm going to go back to S. next time I go to the doc.

lenie...it's like having a wretching rectum/anus...I hate then I have them while flaring.

I do hope you're back on the Canasa, however..you can take them up to 3 times a day..which you might consider.

You'll have to maybe get your husband one of those circle cushions..the ones used for hemorrhoids. Could help relieve some of the discomfort while sitting.

Keep us posted as to your appointment with the doc on Thursday.

Oh, remember to ask him for a 'script of Bentylol.

Hope you feel better today!

quincy...I can use the canasa at bed time but during the day I can't keep it in. I guess the answer to that is to lay down for a while.

That cushion is a good idea. I'm feeling better today. The Entocort helps me a lot.

I'll let you know what the doc says on Thurs.

Hope you having a good day. Arlene
