I've been on uceris for over three weeks now, it's just works ok. I don't have formed stools and I still have blood. The combo of pred and uceris is great but you can't really do that long term.

I have a little "leakage" or infection down in my butt, maybe a fissure that reopened or something cuz it stains my underwear (gross I know!) but when I wipe it's like yellowish.

So back to GI on Thursday.

I've been on nystantin and diflucan for a month now too for yeast.

My blood work came back my WBC is a high 11.19 should not be higher than 11 and MONO and EOS are high to, so can indicate fighting infection and immune problems, correct???

So probably back on antibiotics. Also I'm working with my Lyme's doctor too :) Good docs rightn now.

Thanks for updating. I am sorry you're still struggling with UC and other issues. I wish you would get a break from this. i feel like i always say that to you. I guess some success with uceris is better than none. I had good luck with it myself but now that i am stopping, I am starting to have some symptoms. They are mild but there... Are you going to do flagyl again? Doesn't that generally help you? Have you had stool tests recently? I think you would know if you had a fissure, they hurt BAD. Could it just be regular UC mucous? Do you have any pain?

I was gunna say NSSG - that first line sounded like you. working. but not amazingly. just... working.

I have been on Uceris since getting off Prednisone and awaiting my surgery.

I'll give it the "ehhh.. its "working" label too"

...tho I am in the hospital..
