I agree, medication is necessary. I have Proctitis too and I have seen very few days of remission thus far after 8 months. I drink Kefir milk and my bowels are regulated. If I get constipated, I...
So much for that, I'm bleeding again..I just don't know what to do anymore.....
It is absolutely amazing, I use fat free cow milk and drink it daily. I have some diarrhea because of it but it's not too bad. I feel great. I had a little lapse today and bled a little bit, BUT,...
I considered trying elm as well, but I read somewhere that it may cause a miscarriage if you get pregnant..is that at all accurate?...
Hello everyone, I recently started to drink Kefir milk (i make it at home) and found that I have not had any bleeding for 3 days so far after 8 months. But I did read on WebMD that Kefir can increase...
Thank you Greg....
Yes I already did the research and I'm just looking for feedback from people that actually tried it....
Because I simply didn't know about it until Insofla suggested it. When you have a doctor that's supposed to be suggesting all this and you have to go on a mission on your own to find alternatives,...
Oh that would be why it didn't show up :) Thank you, I hope I find some answers soon too....
Yes I have gotten a response from him :) And I do plan on ignoring garyloovill. I'm asking about anyone's experience with LDN that's all. I created a sig yesterday so not sure why it's not showing...
Thank you. Thankfully, there's others....
Okay I just sent you an email, thank you :)...
Hi everyone, I'm switching Doctors because I don't feel like the option he's giving me is what I want to do just yet. Everyone I've asked advised against Mercaptopurine but he thinks it's the next...
Hi again, I started taking VSL#3 today, hoping it will help. I am getting a little bleeding here and there but no bad. Regarding the LDN, I don't think my doctor will prescribe it for me. He wants to...
Yes I'm taking the suppository version not the enema or oral, it had to be made in the medicine shop because it's compounded. It just burns really badly and I felt the flare up got worse. I talked to...
My blood level is at 11.5 and I take a high dose of Vitamin D, it's 50,000 IU. I'll ask my doctor to prescribe the probiotic, does it make a difference that I have proctitus confined to 5cm of the...
Thank you so much, this is great information. Regarding the LDN, is this something my doctor has to prescribe for me or can I get it from any pharmacy? I am on Vitamin D right now (a pill every week)...
Thank you, me too :(...
Hello everyone, After 8 long agonizing months..I'm still not in remission. I started on tacrolimus suppositories yesterday, it's a compound if anyone is familiar with it. I'm still taking Humira as...
I did try the enemas yes and my body reacted badly to it. I have canasa suppositories now, humira and Uceris...
Does anyone know how long it takes for Uceris to work?...
Thanks a lot for all your help :)...
Diet change was never discussed with me I suppose because it's only in my rectum and not colon. I don't drink alcohol at all....
I Just talked to my doctor and asked him about Asacol, he said that humira is much stronger and since my inflammation is at the end of the rectum it probably won't help. My other two choices are...
I'm starting to wonder why he didn't even bring up that medication with me. He was going to try remicade but I'm doing everything else just to avoid it, I'm not a fan of infusions. Thank you for your...
Me too, I took it daily, I've never not taken my meds on time and till the end of the course. It's just so frustrating...
Hello everyone, I'm new here and I hope someone can help me. I was diagnosed in March 2013 with mild proctitis. It was and still is confined to the rectum and 2 centimers long. My doctor first put me...
