So I am only 23, but I have taken testosterone boosters before for weight lifting. I did not take it everyday, but I did cycle on and off before I got UC (well they think it’s UC still not 100%...
So I have a doctor appointment in the next few days, and as always I know he’s gonna ask what my stool is like. However I have no idea how to really explain this. It’s not formed stool, or diarrhea I...
Has anyone had any experience going on amusement park rides with active UC? I’m suppose to take a trip with some family, and future brother in laws to go to an amusement park. I’m just concerned...
It’s been worse for me at least, but only certain exercises. Like tricep pulldowns, and tricep extensions just make my gut hurt to much. A normal bench press though is perfectly fine. You just got to...
I was diagnosed with UC in November, so it's just short of a year since I have been dealing with this. Through my short time all I can say is nothing is going to be immediate. Unfortunately you're...
I do have a probiotic, but I was told to wait until I finish both antibiotics before taking it. No mention of a fecal transplant, but I have an appointment in a week so who knows what they will...
Didn't stay on flagyl for longer than a week because I was throwing up everyday. So far I hate dificid...worse bms, and I haven't slept through a night in weeks because of the c diff...
So if difcid has a side effect of a c diff symptom...how do you know it's actually doing anything?...
Well the first time I was on flagyl, then the second time was straight vancomycin, and now it's both difcid and vancomycin. No difcid taper, but a vancomycin taper. I just assumed this was just a...
So I was diagnosed with c diff again about a week ago, and I've been taking difcid, and vancomycin for it. However I think since taking those that my Diarrhea has been worse! Actually even before I...
Well I have a appointment in two weeks, and I can ask. What they gave me this round is difcid, and vancomycin. I've had vancomycin before, but not the difcid. Any good?...
Ok....I was going back and forth about asking this, but I can't take it anymore. Recently I have had to start wearing depends...you know like the grown up diapers. I had several accidents at work,...
I wish I could be there! I was really active before I was diagnosed in November. I loved to lift weights, and I was at the gym at least 5-6 days a week. I've tried working out, and it's just to...
vancomycin again except this time it's a taper, and I can't recall what the other one was. Never had it before, but it's 2 pills for 10 days. One in the morning, and one at night. They just called...
Well stool study came back, and no surprise that it's c-diff again. That's like the third time in just a year....no response on the rectal meds yet though...
That sounds about right. Even if it's hardly any stool my body pushes like it's trying to get out something massive....
I'm not taking any rectal meds. Only humira and imuran at the moment. I've had these problems before, but nothing like right now. The doctor never did anything when I mentioned the last few times...
Very painful. I called this morning, and explained what's going on. Right now all they are going to do is another stool study, and go from there....
Tylenol does not work for me. I was pounding at least 6 Tylenol a day when I had my constant headaches, and body aches but even then it did not help much. Is there something your doctor can prescribe?...
Soooo I was on here a month or two ago asking about headaches and body aches. I'm glad to say that I have not had either for a while now, but of course once something works itself out there's...
I do. I go to MUSC which is the medical university here in South Carolina. I honestly don't think I've been off prednisone for more than a month since I was first put on. My first doctor was at my...
So he put me back on prednisone 30mg after about two weeks of being off because I felt 100x worse being off of it than on. So it was 6 pills for a week for the 30mg, then 4 pills for 20mg a week,...
Well this is actually my 2nd doctor, and he's suppose to be the best or one of the best here. My first doctor was complete crap, so I switched to my current one in February I think. He's definitely...
Well after googling withdrawal symptoms it's very possible....though it could just be my colitis. But apart from the aches, and headaches I was really nauseous out of no where a few days ago. I threw...
I just got off prednisone for like the 5th time last week. This time around I started off at 40mg and tapered down, so that lasted about a month maybe a little longer. I originally was only doing...
Usually both. Though it can be just one sometimes. I did have a Prometheus test, and they said I didn't have antibodies. I've been on humira for around 9 months, and I have been doing one shot a week...
They haven't tried humira? My doctors won't consider anything else until they have exhausted the humira option because it's suppose to be that good. I seem to be one of those "rare" cases according...
The pain starts just below my knees, and goes down to my feet. My doctor didn't really seem to know what the cause was, but did not seem to concerned. It's more of a ache pain like I went hiking up a...
So I have was diagnosed with moderate ulcerative colitis back in September. Well now they are saying it's moderate to severe ulcerative colitis...close to a year now and I feel like I have had no...
