Hi everyone! I really need help! When I read many topics about diarrhea, i'm kind of jealous /community/emoticons/smile.gif When my flare starts, I can not go to the bathroom. All i have is blood and...
Yeap, this is my story. My UC started after I quite smoking. Since then, for 7 years, I had remission only while I smoked. The problem is, I got back and forth with smoking, and really want to stop,...
I'm totaly agree with you. We went camping for July 1st weekend, and on the top of my UC, I also had C-diff! So I told my hubby, be ready to walk with me few times at night in the woods. However, I...
ScienceGreek, i don't have D, my symptoms are usually bloating and constipation. So, when i smoke it helps me to go to bathroom. When I smoked like 6-8 cigs, i would cut on pills and go without...
It's definitely connection with cigarettes, not sure if it’s nicotine though… E-cigs not really helping (I use V2), but real 1-2 cigarettes daily help me a lot. Ironically, I’m at stage of hating...
I was going to post here for so many times, but was canceling it at last moment. First of all, no offence to anybody, this is just my story. I never wanted kids even though before I got diagnosed. I...
Hi guys, this is my first time with c-diff, and I'm freaking out. I'm almost done with my 14 days Vanco antibiotic, but I see NO improvement!!!!!! I still have D every time I eat, blood and mucus....
I was diagnosed after my first pregnancy, and two years after, we decided go for the second one, even though my GI said better not. Anyway, I was flaring only first trimester, and then I forgot what...

Hi everyone. Sorry for creating the new post about c.diff, but by reading all info i got even more confused. I got diagnosed with c. diff after, I believe, my GI prescribed me Cipro and Flagyl (I had...
Guys, thank you very much for scarring me with c. Diff. I went to different doctor, and he did the stool test. Guess what?! C. Diff it is....will start antibiotics tomorrow. I just don't understand...

Thank you, guys. Garylouisville, As far as fever, thank God, i had it only for a day. But was surprised, when I called her an hour after colonoscopy, she just sent prescription to the pharmacy. This...
Hi Everyone, I haven't been here for the looong time. Now it's time for the questions, and I'm here. I had colonoscopy 5 weeks ago. As soon as I got back home from it, my fever went to 103. I called...
I was in Flare whole my pragnancy, however, it stoped as soon as i had my baby! For the next 6 month I even forgot that I have UC, my GI blames it on the brastfeeding. But after 6 month i was...

Gavrel, I have not tried Remicade or Humira, and I'm not going to try them as long as possible. Yes, I may assume I've got remission all of sudden after 4 years, just because UC decided to take a...

James, it could be placebo effect which I doudt, but it helps, at least for me. Seriously, if you have chance to get better with natural staff why whould you poison yourself with meds. In my opinion,...
