I get them through I think cvs Caremark? It allows me to do everything online. I have a decent supply though since I’ve kept up my refills even though I haven’t had to use them more than twice a...
I am. Just canasa...
Oh and there’s no blood from what I can see....
I rarely post anymore since I’ve been able to remain in remission for probably a good year. I think most of that has been to being able to work from home and taking a probiotic similar to florastor...
This happened last year but happened again this past week. My bf was the first one to feel iffy. He NEVER gets sick or has any stomach problems so that’s when I know there’s actually a bug or we ate...
Hi guys, For those even in remission, do you find that when doing regular labs your platelet counts are a little elevated? I’m in my 20’s and relatively healthy with minimal flares so I found this...
I have the note that says I had gotten a colonoscopy and biopsies done but it doesn’t list anything specific. Is that another report I would need to ask for?...
For some reason this has been raking my mind lately, I was diagnosed with ulcerative proctitis back in 2013. Since then I’ve had a few very small flare ups related to c diff but have been fine...
Hi, No doc was only prescribing medicines for ulcerative colitis prior. We had a missile scare in Hawaii prior to the numbness I definitely think that had some contribution to it, but I don’t see how...
Hi all back in March I had a very random feeling and sense of numbness while driving to the gym. I remember driving at night and as I was pulling off of the freeway I felt this sense of numbness like...
Hey all so for the past few weeks I’ve been having some anxiety symptoms that cause me to totally go numb. It’s been odd since I’m not panicky but has happened before but never for that long. My doc...
Thanks for everyone’s responses! I’ll start up canasa daily just in case. @sarah14, I did not have any hospital stays within that time period. It was the second time I had gotten c diff. The only...
How is it that everyone else’s passed within 1 day but mine took 3 days to fully develop along with mine lasting longer? Do you think I should start up my canasa everyday just in case?...
Hi all, It’s been a while since I’ve posted on here, but this past weekend (last Sunday) my friends and I went out to eat Korean bbq. Place was somewhat suspect and a few of us starting feeling a...
Thanks ipoop. It helps to know there’s other people here who understand. And yes I think the fact he’s a boy and poop doesn’t gross them out helps a lot. Has anyone tried budesonide? I told my doc...
Sorry I sent that message right after I told him. I should’ve given more background information. My bf doesn’t exactly read between the lines or pick up on things easily unless it’s very...
Hi all, I’m interested in getting my medical marijuana card. I have ulcerative proctitis that last checked was limited to the last 2 CM of my rectum. Has anyone had results longer term than a few...
Oh and back to the bf part, I told him I have an auto immune disease that affects my stomach. No reaction from him. It totally went over his head. I was hoping he’d at least show some concern.......
I think you’re right. Maybe I was showing symptoms but not of a full blown flare. I do remember having two separate periods where I started having colon spasms that wouldn’t go away until I started...
Thank you guys for your responses. I know I need to tell my boyfriend. Originally my plan was to only tell him if I ever got really bad but I hope it never gets to that point... I think I’m just more...
I haven’t had a flare in years. I have mild proctor is that is limited to the last 2 centimeters of my rectum according to my last colonoscopy. Anyways I’ve been doing Canada twice a week ever since....
Also is there a way to delete my thread in the UC forum? I think it's more appropriate for this one....
This problem started Saturday night. I felt unusually bloated and full after eating a big meal. In a way, I felt plugged up and constipated. I started passing a lot of foul smelling gas and had some...
Thanks quincy for your response! I take florastor everyday and cabana she twice a week. Do you think I should start it every day? Or switch to the hydrocortisone suppositories? I feel like I should...
Please advise on what to do as well. I'm starving!!! I'm tiny, but I have a huge appetite! And this run to the bathroom after or even while eating totally kills it!...
I've also upped my probiotics last night and took peppermint which usually helps any spasms. But nothing's worked so far. I have work this week and am worried about running to the bathroom... I've...
Hi Fellow UCers, It's been a while since I've posted on here, but today I had bright green poop. This issue started yesterday when I felt really full and bloated, maybe even constipated, after eating...
So I know I'm not in a flare. I have had no typical symptoms - blood/mucus. And overall I feel fine. Today I took my morning bm and it was a 4 on the Bristol scale, but it was TAN. wtf. Why?? I ate...
Soooo my stomachs still being weird. I hate how I can't tell if I'm starting to flare or if it's from the medicine -__- sorry to be tmi but I've gone from having d Monday to being constipated for two...
When you stop them, do you notice any withdrawal symptoms? And as for the diarrhea do you have ibs?...
Okay I just started 10mg of amitritpyline today. I hope to be off this stuff by the end of the month!! Any tips on how to wean off? Should I cut this pill? I don't see a coating. Or should I do the...
Hi everyone, So I've been in Amitriptyline since last August. I started at 10mg and then moved up to 25. Originally went on it to get rid of these colon spasms I was having and some depression and...
I normally have a bm once a day. When I have those weird ish days it's 4. And yeah I know I shouldn't be drinking but I've been in such a celebration mode with graduation coming up! And I'm not on...
Really??? Is it a lot or a little? And does it kind of resemble dried blood to you? It reminds me of dried discharge kind of. Did you ever bring it up with your GI? And I've noticed I'll get it even...
and how high up do you think the inflammation would be until it become darker? I know that if it's low like in the recrum it would be bright red. Is there a certain point it needs to be at for the...
What should I do in the meantime? The doctor won't get back to me until Monday. And is it possible it's just a regular stomach ulcer?? I have been drinking a lot more alcohol lately and been really...
My last scope was in December and it was all clear but it was only a sigmoidoscopy...
What do I do?? Should I start adding the hydrocortisone suppository too??...
Thanks for the advice guys. I wrote to the doctor today. And after my first c diff infection I was diagnosed with proctitis. But the doctor couldn't say if it was just damage from the c diff or if it...
Guys lately I've been seeing a small amount of dark almost black dried purplish blood??? (Not even sure) on my underwear coming from my butt. I'm sure of the color because I wear panty liners....
So since I'm constipated today and yesterday but had some pins and needles type cramps in my gut, is this getting better or worse? I haven't felt this backed up in a while...
I'm having that too! Except I have a few other symptoms that I think would be a flare. But how are you now? Are you still going?? I'd still get check ASAP and start florastor the main way I can tell...
Oops sorry that was a !! Also what are your other symptoms that make you sure you're in a flare??...
Thanks for your response? When you start to flare, is it consistent though? Like you'll go more in the mornings every single day?? And how did your stomach flu develop into c diff? I haven't taken...
I've had that too. Last time I had C diff my symptoms would make me thing i was getting better or that i didn't even have it. Instead of diarrhea id have loose poops but id always that stomach pain...
Hi Guys! It's been a while since I posted, but I guess that might be a good thing?? Anyways, I was officially diagnosed with UC in December... Damn it. I've been really good since then and doing my...
I saw it during a showing where the tenant was still living there. I had no idea he was that messy and would leave such a mess. The roach exterminator was supposed to come today but now he won't be...
I don't know what's wrong with me. I can't eat. I have no appetite. I feel barely any motivation to do anything. I don't even want to wake up in the morning. And now I'm starting to cry again and I'm...
For the past year I've lived with my sister and her boyfriend. Long story short, we don't get along at all. I couldn't wait to be done with roommates. Now I have just recently moved into my own...
Greyblazer, I just scheduled mine today! December 21st is the big day for me... So does the biopsy show if you have any ulcerative colitis or crohns? Can it even show even if you have no active...
