Thank you so much for those suggestions. I'm going to mention them to her Dr....
Her Dr did say if she can't tolerate any of these meds then her only other option was either remicade or Humira. She's scared to take those too. I guess she may have no choice....
She's still on the 6mp. She takes 50mg....
I agree. I know her Dr means well, but these meds are not helping at all. Just making her worse....
I don't know how to help my daughter. When she was first diagnosed at 15 she was put on Asacol HD 12 pills a day she developed pancreatitis and was put in hospital for a week. She was given...
Thank you so much for the information Garylouisville!...
Thank you Electro! I'm happy to hear your daughter is feeling better! This is my daughter's first fight with it. I pray it doesn't come back!!!...
Joanna what brand is good?...
Oh ok, she doesn't like yogurt at all. I was going to make her eat it because I thought it would help. VSL# 3 where do I buy this? And the saccharomyces? I'm so lost in all this....
Can y'all recommend a good yogurt brand my daughter can eat everyday?...
Ok, thank you! I will look into both suggestions! :)...
I keep reading conflicting information about taking probiotics for c diif. Does anyone reccommend probiotics for c diff? Is it safe?...
Thank you all for the replies. She has a c diff infection. She isn't taking the Apriso either. All she is on at the moment is vancomycin, 6mp, folic acid, and her b/c. I pray this antibiotic kills it...
Colon is still very inflamed though....
Her ct scan looked good, no abscess or tears, but they are admitting her. Her WBC is too high. They're putting her on antibiotics. :((...
Ugh I hate autocorrect!! Sorry if I don't make sense....
I'm so glad I found this forum. It's comforting to know she's not alone in all this, but at the same time in wouldn't wish on anyone....
I had to bring her to ER. The doc said her white blood count cell is high. They're doing a CT scan of her abdomen. She's hooked up with IVs and feel in better for now. Her white bold count cell is 22...
Now she's saying her back is hurting her really bad. Her friend is bringing her home from school right now. I''m starting to painic....
Ok, thank you I will call her Dr tomorrow....

Yesterday she had a colonoscopy and she was going a lot but no abdominal cramps. Today she took the apriso in the AM went a few times before her first class, had lunch and she said it has come with a...
My daughter took apriso today for the first time and is having bad abdominal cramps and diarrhea. She has been to the RR more than she can count. Will it get better taking it again tomorrow? I'm...
Yes I started her on probiotics. I had no clue on what kind to buy, but with the help of the sales lady from sunflower shop I bought her garden of life brand RAW probiotics for women. Also the 6mp is...
My daughter had her colonoscopy today and it showed internal hemorrhoids and mild on severity of left sided UC. Inflammation noted in the transverse colon. Her Dr prescribed her Rowasa enema to start...
Thank you both for replying. She didn't take the Canasa last night, but will tonight. I'm praying she starts seeing some improvement soon. She will be taking it every other day all this week. I will...
My daughter is scheduled for a colonoscopy in Dec due to current flare-up. This will be her third. She recently changed Drs from pediatric to adult. In the meantime she has been given Canasa...
