That’s correct, no change in any of my other meds. I’m really hoping I can turn it around without needing prednisone or anything of the sort, but we’ll see! Thank you for your support ❤️...
Thank you for your response and kindness!...
Hi there - long story short I was without my mesalamine suppositories for about 3 weeks. Not ideal, I know. I was just able to start back on them again last night (Saturday), but this morning I'm...
Hi again all - I have another update that definitely helps explain some of what’s been going on with me. Turns out - I have a 4.3 CM cyst on my right ovary, which is looking to be the culprit of all...
Hi all - just here with an update. So I tried an herbal sleep supplement the next night, which caused a little bit of help. This made me feel better yesterday, but still had urgent, bad D yesterday...
Thank you so much, that’s what I’m thinking. And I can ask my Dr. about maybe increasing the Lialda - I’d certainly be open to that before trying a different med. I’m only 4’11 but hey, the more...
I know I’ve been posting on here pretty frequently, as you can imagine it’s been one hell of a summer for me medically. I started on 9MG oral Uceris last Thursday for stomach pain and occasional...
Oral! And just stomach discomfort and urgency from time to time, no blood or mucus...
Hey all - just started 2 days ago on 9MG of Budesonide and am having more gas than usual. Anyone else experience this/other side effects on the med? I know everyone says it’s supposed to have no side...
Hi there! Let me clear things up. I currently take 3 tabs of oral Mesalamine, Visbiome probiotic, Tumeric capsules, and yes, nightly Canasa suppositories since first being prescribed them in 2018....
Hi folks, here's the rundown. I was diagnosed with UC when I was 8 years old (now 23). I was in remission until age 20, where I had about a 3-4 month flare, then another 4 month flare the following...
Thanks everyone - sometimes just hearing "normal" is all I need, but the rectal foam idea is one I hadn't considered. I might look into it!...
Hello everyone!! Hope everyone’s having a great week so far. I’m back seeking some advice. I’ve been on Canasa (mesalmine) suppositories for a little over 2 months now. They stopped my bleeding and...
Just posting an update for anyone who might come across this later dealing with something similar -- it's now 6 days later and things have definitely firmed up, and I am back to eating a normal diet....
Yes, I agree. I need to just get the tests done, and then I can go from there. I called the doctor around 9:30 AM - its after 1:00 and still no response :/ Thank you for your comment!...
Hi everyone, My gift for New Years this year was a horrific bought of food poisoning. It went something like this: On Saturday morning, I went to a shitty diner with friends. I got a western omelette...
Hey! I know this post is a few weeks old, but I was just wondering if you had any update?? I'm in a very similar situation, when I went down to 5MG of prednisone, I started to get that "urge" that I...
Hi folks, So I'm just gonna get right down to it - I don't know where else to turn. I feel like I've hit a dead end with my treatment, and I don't know where to go from here. Let me try and give you...
Thank you so much! I am currently on my regular dosage of Lialda, along with 15mg of prednisone (started at 20mg), VSL3, and Tumeric Capsules....
Hi there everybody! Somehow I’ve had UC for 14 years and I just got prescribed Canasa for the first time. My flare seems to be on its way out *knocks on wood furiously* but my dr thinks Canasa will...
So this past month has been absolutely exhausting, and, though my doctor is good at handing out treatments, no one is good at explaining to me what is ACTUALLY going on inside of my body. I am a...
