My title may have been misleading, I didn't mean "give up" as in "give up" I meant specifically what I said "give up on having a colon". As far as far fecal transplant - yes this had been mentioned...
...on being able to KEEP MY COLON??? I was diagnosed 2 1/2 years ago and have been through everything from Mesalamine to MP6 to Humira and everything in-between, including very low painful and swingy...
So in other words, Entocort and Uceris are both Budesonide, however they each have a different delivery mechanism, is this correct? I just don't know really which one I should try to get... though I...
I should've been more clear, it was $1000 or so for the Uceris specifically. According to this site: http://www.medicinenet.com/budesonide/article.htm The Entocort does the same thing as the Uceris...
So my doctor recently wrote me a script (a few weeks ago) for Budesonide, but was really kind of unhelpful as to where to go and what to do to get it ... so I am kind of on my own having to...
I've been on the other medicines long term (prednisone and the pain meds) so I really doubt it's them. The only change in meds since the loss of appetite started is the Humira. The prednisone DID...

I've been on/off Prednisone throughout the last 2-3 years of my ordeal, up to 40 mg at the max. Most recently, I have been on it for about 4 solid months at a 20 mg dose. When I started my Humira...
To all about the enemas/suppositories - are the enemas that much more effective then the suppositories? Cuz I DO have the suppositories but I DO NOT have the enemas. And as I remember the enemas were...
Thanks all for the suggestions and support, keep it coming! I just know there must be some 'key' for me to get this under control. I realize everyone is different and treatments very wildly from one...
I must admit I've been kind of lacking on really researching different things on my own to see what I can do or can try on my own to improve my symptons, but now that it has been years with all kinds...
I don't want to alarm you or anything but this could potentially be something very serious. Testicular cancer has been known to occur in young men; I would get this checked out IMMEDIATELY by a...
Greetings everyone. This won't be a short post as I'd like to share as much as I can, but I'll try to condense it as much as possible. In the summer of 2009 I had some of the worst pain i ever felt...
