I agree with how most everyone is responding: everyone responds differently with UC, to everything. You really have to just try and see. In my case I found beer to cause especially bad side effects...
This has got to be one of the hardest things to deal with. I feel for you. I was doing everything I could, but some days I would still be late. And some days I would miss altogether. Eventually I met...
The function of sweating is to cool the body down and there really isn't any evidence that toxins are released through sweat. Detoxification is primarily done via the liver, kidney and intestines....
:( I'm so sorry sodbuster19. I wish they'd just leave you alone. The only other thing I know that helped with mine is the opposite of what you wanna hear: time. Mine always seemed to get really bad...
Ugh, hemi's are the worst. :( I redefined my definition of pain after a few months of some pretty bad ones. Suppositories helped the most for me, but had to use them consistently to see results. I...
I just mentioned this in a recent thread, but this sounds exactly what I was like after I developed "mesalamine induced acute intolerance syndrome." According to pharma disclosures with the meds,...
I wish the best for you! I'm in a similar situation. Started Humira in October. On entecort and sulfasalazine. Things are under control enough to taper entecort but ultimately decided to taper off...

Obviously overdoing it on caffeine/sugar isn't healthy. And I know there's controversy, but I'd be willing to bet the sugar-free ones are probably worse. And i think we can all agree prednisone is an...
I just wanted to thank y'all for the responses and followup. Sorry I've been absent (Is there any good mobile solution for these forums? I find myself at a computer so little these days, but on my...
Xeekk, I wish you the best with it! I also wish you the best dealing with insurance. I've been fortunate enough to have a dr who has taken care of everything and my insurance hasn't given me trouble...
I did try a 6mp for a year or so. I didn't see much progress. I'm devolving a list of questions to take in, so I'll add that to my list (what if humira doesn't work, or stops working). Thanks for...
I am starting in a few days. Fingers crossed…...
Hi all, I've lurked on the forum for years, but this is my first time posting. Quick history: I was diagnosed with moderate UC in 2000 and put on prednisone, as asacol & rowasa, which pretty quickly...
