I was diagnosed with UC last summer through a colonoscopy with the doctor saying it was only in my rectosignoid colon. Had one bad flare up then with some blood and diarrhea and a few days in the hospital.
The last month I’ve been feeling off and finally went to the hospital two Fridays ago. CT scan showed my rectosigmoid Colin was inflamed so they sent me home on uceris (along with the 4 apprezo I always take a day). Stopped pooping after that and ended up having to go the hospital for pain management due to constipation.
Left the ER yesterday, but I’m still having weird symptoms. Really bad headaches, Sporadic stomach pain, tightness in neck, and just feeling really hot without a fever, but still no bloody diarrhea. Second CT three days ago showed I was less inflamed and no longer constipated.
My GI was a little confused by why I was in so much pain given how minor my case was, but is still convinced this was a UC flare up. I’m not as sure as I had no blood and actually became constipated.
