Skid mark of poop on my undies....
Not a few months now thank god(pretty much a day or 2 after being on the suppositories it stopped), down to 2 farely solid bowel movements a day(morning and after dinner in the evening), lot of...
I've had that the past month or 2, GI confirmed it was a fissure 3 weeks ago, my UC had calmed down so she took me off the pentasa suppositries(still on the 4mg granules), i take a stool softener...
Pentasa(Mesalamine) 4mg sachet of granules. I was in a flare up in march, the sachets were making little or no difference, i got put on suppostries in july and saw an almost immediate effect, i'm off...
Yeah prescription did the job for me, i was getting them on and off for a while then bam one weekend i couldn't move without pain, tried over the counter cream\suppositries to no avail, called into...
For healthy food, whenever i'm overworked or have a busy schedule, i'd make a big batch\pot of food, big stew, stir fry, that i could take some of and warm up and eat over a few days. If you're...
On the way to work for me every morning, probably something to do with the industrial estate having speed bumps every 100 metres....
I'm usually very thorough in wiping after being to the loo, so i don't think it's residue. I've been off the hemmy cream\suppositries for around 2 weeks now. When i do go the stools are fairly solid,...
Hi again, had a mild outbreak there earlier this year, nothing compared to what it was last year. Went to my GI and had a colonoscopy, confirmed again i had a left sided UC(it had receded compared to...
Actually the tradition used be black on paddys day, well that was because guiness used have a high iron content....
There was an energy drink over here, powerade blue, i remember drinking it by the bucketload when on nightshift once and i looked down one day after relieving myself and the green poop freaked me out....
Do any of you ever get the feeling that when you eat that you're pushing something(a stool) that was already there down. If i eat something substantial(dinner for instance) i usually have to go an...
You can pick up the curcumin in any holland & barrets or that type of store, i go with the tablets. Could it be something you're eating\drinking? salt and vinegar crisps used to kick me off big time....
I had major problems with hemmies when i first started taking them. 1. Every now and then i get that. 2. Mild urgency, hard to say going from having to go the whole time to going to once every day in...
The hemmies have picked up again, i was taking the suppositories every 2nd or 3rd(still taking the 2mg granules) night but it felt clear earlier this week and i used the suppositories 3 nights in a...
I got a nutribullet when i was diagnosed, basically a DIY smoothie maker, add in my own fruit\vegetables, superfoods, supplements etc. I imagine it'll work out a hell of a lot cheaper too than...
@LondonRed It did to me too(the soreness), sitting down for a week or so afterward was interesting. Keep track of what you eat too, i tried a small pack of popcorn one day and regretted it that...
Did you notice hemmies before or after the suppostories? I was kinda in the same boat, minor bleeding, mucus, 8-10 trips to the bathroom every day. I was given suppostries(pentaas) 2 weeks ago, my...
I have left side UC too, I had several bowel movements a day for a few months, blood mucus etc, doc gave me pentasa 2mg, and I watched what I ate, 3 light meals no more a day, it improved but was...
It can be different things for different people, i've a lactose intolerance too but drinking milk or eating cheese never triggered or worsened my UC during a flare. For example with me, salt and...
Been taking a fistful of blueberries in my smoothies for the past year and bit and never noticed them accelerate or help with flair. Think i'll be adding 2 fistfuls from now on....
I was in the same boat, pentasa sachets were clearing it up gradually but still getting the odd bit of blood\mucus, and like you said breaking wind was like playing russian roullette. I don't know...
i think it was more of prevention thing but my old fella swore by a teaspoon of honey, cider vinegar and black molasses mixed with warm water every morning. I remember him working\digging out in the...
Reminds me of my first colonoscopy, i get whatever they gave me, i look at the clock in the room, it's 3:40PM Mar 19th, doc tells me to count to 5, i get to 4. I wake up in another room, look at the...
@Sheerbear, i have been on 2mg pentasa for a while, the suppositries were introduced last week. Could be the stools, they're the most solid\consistent looking i've done in quite a while. @gary...
Hi All, i got diagnosed over a year ago with UC. My one seems to be a mild version, at worst i was going 20 times a day to the bathroom, i was blessed in that i had little or no stomach pains. went...
