Hello everyone, I think I've only posted here once before but I do look around the forums everyday
Anyway, I have been in my second flare up for about
2 weeks, yup over Christmas and New Year! And I'm still not used to this, so I'm not entirely sure what's 'normal' for UC.
I can't eat much apart from white bread,soup,plain tortilla chips and mashed potatoes.
Having D every day, it varies but it can be up to 6-7 times.
Have cramping which can be severe but goes quickly, but comes again many times.
Extreme fatigue, although I'm anaemic also.
Horrible nausea too
All I've done is sit about
waiting for the pred to work, but it's taking so much longer this time, although my Pentasa doesn't seem to be working for me so I'm seeing my gastro doc in feb for a new medication hopefully.
I'm just looking at how to cope and handle this, I wish there was an easy way for a flare to disappear but many people will be thinking the same thing....
