Well, its been a few weeks now since I started lowering the amount I take. I was taking 12/day then I would lowere by 2/day for 2 weeks till I am where I am now. 6/day and I have not noticed any change at all. I think it's because I was in remission for a few months before I decided to try this. I called my GI today, yes on a Saturday to inform him of what I did over the last 2 months. He said as long as nothing changes to stay at 6/day, and if anything in the slightest changes go up to 8/day for 1 week then stright to 12/day. He said he's pretty sure I'll stay in remission for a long time, as I have been in remission I'd say about
85% of the time since I was DX. I have had a few minor flares, 2 times I had C-Diff, and 2 times I had sinus problems. But for the most part I've done pretty well. He also told me that for Christmas he was gonna stop by and give me 60 days worth of Canasa, just in case, and 60 days of Rowasa, just in case. I told him how much it would help if I need them. He tells me that since I drive a truck and I'm gone for 3-4 weeks at a time that he would feel better knowing that I had the meds with me on the road in case they were needed. I know I have said this many times, but I just love my GI.
