Anybody tried the ENTYVIO Pen? I saw it advertised. Give yourself shots every 2 weeks....
Dr says keep doing what I'm doing. Don't want to rock the carefully balanced precarious boat with any antibiotics. It's still a little red and puffy but mostly just itchy. Keep it clean. Keep it...
I drew a line around the red and it's for sure a little better....
That is exactly what my husband says and he found Google articles saying Entivio and Xolair are both linked to higher incidence. It's infection swelling, not ice and elevation swelling and he's right...
Puffy and red. If it doesn't look better by Monday or it keeps looking worse I'll call my doctor. I hate the fuss....
I cut the top of my foot and it's looking angrier and angrier. Doctor Google suggests that both Entyvio and Xolair can have infections as potential side effects. Anyone else dealt with this? How much...

When I have vertigo, it's because I'm dehydrated....
"Chest pain can be a complication of migraine. The treatment should be focused on migraine control. Migraine should be included in the differential diagnosis of chest pain." Most articles are behind...
I'm glad to hear that is working for you. I'm glad I've never had migraines as frequently as that! I will know more soon. Another colonoscopy next week just to make sure things a more settled there...
All new to me, too. They've tested everything for the fainting/seizures and nothing shows up. But I've done it in front of them, so they know I'm not imagining it. I have an appointment to talk about...
I've carefully eaten the white puffy stuff around the indigestible bits. The hulls are like swallowing glass....
Sounds like what has helped me if things were not too bad. I really wish prednisone were not so bad for you because it sure does work....
I've had a recurring pain I call a heart spike. It is intense stabbing pain in my chest. It hurts so much I am surprised there is nothing visible. ER takes this seriously, so I've had every test...
Have you been to Tops for Shoes? Have you shopped in person? Or tried to do this all mail order?...
Ruth, if your Post Title is your question instead of your name, it is more likely to get responses. To change it, click the little down-pointing triangle by the word Options and select Edit Post. I...
Yes, thank you. I’ve never noticed swollen lymph nodes before. But it could have been all along and I’m a bad scanner. Because I am. Because I don’t want to think about it. It seems to be resolving...
I was on it for years, added to my Lialda. It improved things some, I guess. It woulda been worth it if it worked. I got bloodwork all the time. Had to stop taking it when my liver function tests...
In your experience, is swollen lymph nodes a UC thing or a Covid thing? My post got off topic focusing on the hyperbole of the GP....
In your experience, is swollen lymph nodes a UC thing or a a Covid thing? I think we are off topic of my question focusing on the hyperbole of the GP....
I agree. Sounds like exaggeration. Or hyperbole....
Thank you Clo. That sounds exactly like what has been going on. I blame the allergies, then the UC for the cramping and diarrhea, blamed entyvio for the chills, sweats and aches. I couldn’t even lay...
Oh and GI says see how I do with the next infusion and that his PA should not have jumped straight to antibodies. He agrees that, considering the prevalence of Covid and the symptoms, odds are in...
It seems to be slowly resolving itself. At least around here we have a lot of Covid right now. I am hearing that one or two members in a family will test positive, everybody else is negative and they...
I didn’t even notice above the collar bone until she checked. It was the pain and swelling behind my ear and under my jaw like mumps that had me complaining....
I was checked and tested negative for Covid....
I have swollen lymph nodes above my collar bones, behind my ears and under my jaw. Is this a UC thing? My doctor suggests that I must have had Covid. I did have an exceptionally bad flare before my...
Worse Every time, every kind, every stage....
DELZICOL has a Savings Program. It looks similar to Apriso and Lialda. Anybody on it?...
The savings on my Apriso seems to have ended. Is there a discount on any Mesalamine that you know of? I was on Lialda and Asacol Hd before. They all seem the same. Thanks!...
Personally, I can get a flare more under control by living on white rice. You can't really live on white rice forever. But when things are bad, I go to nothing but white rice, maybe some chicken...
I've gone back and forth between Lialda and Apriso. They both seem about the same....
Teeth look good. Sinuses and glands look “angry”....
Doctor can’t even virtual see me till next Monday. Dentist said come right in, xrayed, looks good, but wrote me up amoxicillin and let him know....
Thanks!...
What’s new is a hot hard swollen gland near my jaw. Is this something I should be concerned about? Do you know if this could be a side effect any of the drugs I’m on? They are all in my signature....
My Apriso Savings Card says it is expiring today, 3/31/2020. Has this happened before? Did they send a new card? Thanks,...
Thank you!...
New Year, New Copays and Deductibles - Any Savings Cards, Patient Assistance Programs or Co-Pay Programs we should know about? Thanks!...
Yes That’s what they said. I was hoping for a better answer. Thanks, though. (You don’t get to pick.)...
I have Ulcerative Colitis and Chronic Idiopathic Urticaria with Angioedema. I’m finally feeling better, a lot better, but I still ache like I’m getting the flu. This has been going on for years,...
I was wondering if anyone else was on both and noticed improvement. The doctor specializes in autoimmune, allergies and asthma. I am given the drug as part of a drug trial. Something to do with mast...
Is it possible that Xolair shots boost the auto immune suppression of Entyvio? I was diagnosed October 2012 with Pancolitis. I’ve broken out, swelled up or gotten pseudo lupus from everything we’ve...
Salad and raw veg is good, but so not worth it. I’ve learned to like it cooked....
I’ve asked doctors and they insist they are of no value for me since my issue is mostly where it won’t reach. I just got a new doctor. He asked why I’d never tried. So he prescribed 2 weeks. It’s...
Every time I get really really bad, I start having my hair fall out a few months later. But it always comes back. Thank goodness!...
I find laying in the tub and letting the shower run warm water over where it hurts helps. Not a lot. When it’s bad, nothing helps a lot. But anything is better than nothing. And the shower is near...
Lots of great ideas! I’ve bought some paint. I’m enjoying playing. I bought a bunch of fancy frames. Anything looks better framed. My hallway will be a gallery....
I have the same thing. I’ve tried everything. Timing meds and timing meals... changing diet... everything I can think of. I just sleep on the toilet sometimes. Don’t make big decisions. Be careful if...
Thank you...
