Symptoms seem to.. reverse?

Hey all -
I've been feeling a lot better recently abdominal pain wise, but everything else seems to be.. exactly opposite as before.
I went from around 5-6 BM's a day, diarrhea, etc.. to me just having my first BM in almost 1.5 weeks and it was pretty solid.
My pain is not as bad as before, and only happens around twice a day vs. countless times.
I've also been having so much gas and burping a whole lot as well.
I haven't changed anything, been taking my lialda 2x a day and that's it. I'm just not sure what is going on -
What do you guys think? Should I check with my GI regarding this - especially not having a BM for almost 2 weeks?

Sounds like you should have it checked out.

Not have a bm for that long is kind of weird. Have you tried the usual constipation relievers without success? What kind of foods are you eating?

Constipation that severe can be a sign of a worsening flare. As your colon becomes swollen, it becomes harder for waste to pass through it. Talk to your doctor.

In the meantime, a stool softener is safer than a stimulant laxative.
