Good morning, so I have been without Entyvio since January this year, and now I’m having stomach cramps and that feeling you get when you have to use the bathroom multiple times a day but I’m not actually going to the bathroom. No blood in stool and normal 1-2 times a day. Regardless if I eat or not eat I’m still cramping multiple times a day.
Thoughts?
I can still eat and drink whatever.
Diagnosis June 17 with UC, 2 years of biologics and colonoscopy in November 19 with no sign of UC.

Any urgency to go over and above your normal, and are cramps in stomach or abdomen?
Are you on rectal meds?

Definitely stomach cramps, no meds. Just an urge to go probably 1-2 an hour with cramping for a couple of seconds but not actually going. If that makes sense.

Could be very mild rectal inflammation. Could be gastritis. Could be H. Pylori....my husband had symptoms like that.

Can you get on any rectal meds? Can you get a blood test for h. Pylori? Can you try a PPI and see if that helps?
