Fever is getting better. I only needed 650 mg Tylenol this week.

I'm bleeding still and I still need diapers. Especially at night. I poop myself in my sleep.

Uceris is still affecting me. Keeping insurance through cobra is insanely expensive. My stool test came back negative for c diff. I knew that though.

Should I take claritin/benadryl right before my next shot? To prevent side effects.

I would take claritin/benadryl about 30 minutes before you take your next shot.

Awesome thank you. My next shot is tomorrow already!

Fingers crossed for lots of improvement tomorrow.

Shot is done. I took diphenhydramine. I had a 100.3 today and I took Tylenol for it. Before the shot my temp was normal. Now I just need to wait.

I had my last shot at 8/21/2018 and I'm still battling with fevers. This comes to show me that the fever might be because of the flare itself. Yesterday I measured 101.8 F.

I agree Andrea. It sounds like it might be from being inflamed. It's good that you have a plan moving forward. After a certain point, it gets nerve-wracking feeling like your health is deteriorating and you're waiting around for something to work. You're going to be done waiting soon!
