Have any of you tried the Paleo Diet? And if so, do you see a difference?...
Thank you for the responses and advice. No, I haven't been on prednisone in years. This has been going on since DX. Ugh...need to try some things I guess, I just hate starting anything new! Be well...
I've had UC 15 years now. Same med always. I take Sulfasalazine 500mg 2x/day. Low dose. It has always kept the blood and mucous away. The more I take, it seems my stomach aches get worse. some days I...
Quincy, I dont think it showed any inflammation. Doc told me that If It was my first scope, he would have never known I have colitis. Best scope in years. What do you mean by rectum? would that cause...
For me, sometimes it's in and out in 5 minutes, but I often am in there 45 minutes to an hour...and that's not good for hemmorhoids lol...
It's usually a couple of times per week. Sometimes I'll go a week and be fine. It's usually when I haven't gone for a few days then it's BAM a painful half a day ordeal. I take sulfasalazine only...
So, my doctor said that my latest c-scope looked good. Couldn't even tell that I have UC. I've had this for 15 years. Left sided, moderate to mild. My question is, does anyone else get the horrible...
3-5times a day in the mornings a few times a week. Cant leave the house until around noon on those days? I'm wondering if miralax daily might help. Anyone else have any input on miralax?...
Not sure how to bump this up lol...
Hello, I read somewhere that having nausea and feeling like you are going to vomit during a stomach ache (while on the bowl) is a symptom of crohns...I sometimes get this and I was diagnosed with UC...
Thanks. My Dr. Says every 3 years. I was just wondering what the normal average is. Everyone stay well! :)...

Thank you for the reply. I take the uncoated pill. 500mg twice daily. Was working great for me. I know it's a low dose. I've been taking it that way for 15 years and have never had this orange color....

Good morning. I had my every 3 year colonoscopy Thursday. Since then I have had some blood in the bowl ( I believe due to hemmies that are aggravated) but not each time. and lower abdominal cramping...
They told me he stopped 3 times for biopsies, and that I would have some extra air in there. And could possibly have a small amount of blood. I have left sided UC, considered mild. I take...
How long until it got better?...
Thank you for the replies. I'm eating soups and jello for a few days and medicating the bottom. I just don't want to work myself up with worry. I will call my doctor on Monday. I hate weekends for...
Hi everyone. Just wondering if anyone has had this happen or has any insight on how to determine whether bleeding after a colonoscopy is from Hemorrhoids, or a perforation? I have Hemorrhoids and...
Well, he said they are normal and o.k. I just thought he said PVO...but must be PVC...It just feels funny. not like a regular beat...when youre not feeling anything...and then a weird beat thing. I...
Thanks for the reply. Yes, It's kinda like a dull stop feeling then a boom and then nothing....and I usually have to take a deep breath. I figured I didn't hear the Doc right. I have Mitral Valve...
