I been diagnosed with UC about five years ago . I started meditation was on Octasa ASA. Nothing seem to work until I was put on a course of prednisone which in conjunction with pentasa granules but was put on 8 weekly infusion Vedo at St Albans hospital this work brilliantly for 1and half years, then suddenly a couple of weeks ago i started seeing bloody mucus around my first stool of the day going on an average 3 time a day . I have no fever no diarrhoea no abdominal cramps etc. I’ve tried phoning my IBD nurse, but unlike when I first had this disease you could speak to someone straight away. Now it takes a few days for them to get back to you. My question to anyone is . Anyone been on Vedo infusions and this has happened. I did start to take 3 prednisone for 7days and it seem to help a lot went down to to and it’s all back. Anyone with UC could you please get back to me. Being fine for one and half years I feel like I am back to square one . Lynda Thankyou.
