Diagnosed with UC and problems with Diarrhea - Need Advice.

Hello,

I'm new here and this is my first post.

I've been diagnosed with mild Ulcerative Colitis some 6 months back. I've been on Mascol ever since and have had two spells of Deltacortril ( One lasting a month and then when the bleeding didn't stop, had to have it for 3 months).

One thing i've struggled with is Diarrhea and it's getting worse day by day. I've tried a low-fibre diet and i've taken as many precautions as necessary but nothing is helping. My weight has stayed the same but i've lost alot of muscle because i'm not sure what to eat.

Overall I'm here for advice, of any kind. I'm a young 25 year old male and i want to tackle this condition with positivity. So if there is anything helpful you can share, please do.

Wishing all of you guys good health, cheers.
