If you feel that you're improving, it may be okay to wait until after your scope on Monday to see what action to take. This way you can see if you have inflammation in the rectum that requires treatment and if it looks like it would be better treated with 5ASAs. I was using cortifoam enemas for a while and I found them helpful but at a certain point, I stopped and i've been using Canasa/Rowasa since and I am still feeling OK... 60mg is a high dose of steriods. When I was on a high dose, I wasn't using rectal meds at all but every situation is individual, you need to gauge what is best for you. I hope you are feeling better in 2011! Let us know how it goes on Monday.
