Thanks everyone. I'm hoping it is just the antibiotics. The 1.6% that makes me feel better. She has been on culturelle kids but not every day, so im gonna put her back on them oncr in Am once in PM...
Anyone's kids have UC or similar? I've had UC since I was 21, almost 35 now. My 8yr old has had 3 bathroom incidents today in a 2.5hr period. Now that being said, she was on a 5 day course of...
So I've been keeping a daily journal of how I'm feeling, my bathroom trips etc. I'm stuck in a loop, where I can go 3-4 days no blood, but day 5 they'll be some blood. Not really altering my food...
The psyllium is ok during flares? Is their a brand that's better than others?...
Thanks, I'll definitely be trying that! Any suggestion on diet? I've been trying low sulfur, and low residue....
At this point I think I'm on them indefinitely, I have pancolitis and my asacol 800hd does a great job of keeping the rest of my colon healthy, but the last 20cm has been an ongoing issue. I was...
Hi. I think I'm fighting a proctitis flare. Solid bowel movements, but having bright red blood. I just got some canasa suppositories. I've been trying to manage with just mesalmine enemas, but it...
So for the past 2 weeks. I'm only going every 3 days, and it starts soft, then gets former but never firm, then back to mushy diarrhea. And it's everything for 3 days. No pain, just everything every...

Went back to Dr today after lialada was only making symptoms worse. He's suggesting pred for 3 months. 20mg 6 weeks, then taper 5 every 2 weeks. What kind of side effects can I look forward to on...
I thought so but I saw a few people saying they take metamucil even during flares. So I wasn't sure....
So I've had UC for over a decade, but I'm new to not being able get a flare under control. Can not getting enough fiber make things worse? I get almost no fiber, because I've been afraid of it while...
Hi, I've been reading these posts, and I know this is an old topic, but I was just curious. I just started Lialda 4.8g a day after having been on 1.2g Asacol for 10yrs, then 1.6g Asacol HD then...
Can it be possible to have too much meslamine? when I was on 1.2g I only flared twice a year for maybe a month at the worst, simple diet change to bland food and I was back on track. I also had a...

Thank you so much! I'm going back in next week to have an appointment, and I just left a message asking about staying on the enemas longer, my last GI said 3 weeks of steroid enemas was all I could...

Unfortunately my oncologist moved away a few years ago, several states away, and because of the ACA marketplace continuing to change year after year, so does my insurance, which means I've had like 4...

Hey everyone update. New Doc, and he has me on Lialda or Asacol 800hd for the 4.8grams. I say or, because I have Asacol left, and he gave me a prescription for Lialda. I've been on 2 1200mg pills...

Thanks for the replys everyone :) I'm not sure how many grams the 3 asacol 800hd's are, I'm going to go back to nightly no matter what ME's for at least a month, and I've cut all sugar out of my diet...
