Hi, New to the forum

I had a colonoscopy 5 years ago due to blood in my stools, I was given suppositories and it cleared up and I've thought nothing of it until it started again 2 months ago. My latest colonoscopy showed proctitis and an ulcer, I'm taking mesalazine suppositories which stopped the bleeding, I was taking 2 before bed but after a few hours I had to go to the toilet. My problem is my body keeps pushing as if it needs to get everything out. This happens 3-4 times within an hour after my first loo visit. I had an appointment with the ibd clinic and was told I could split them through the day. This made it worse and I got really bad piles. I'm now going back to 2 before bed. I'm just putting up with the 1am toilet visits and uncontrollable pushing. I was wondering if this is a normal reaction to the meds. I started bleeding again (a very tiny bit) when I split the tablets, my bum never got a rest, hoping it will ease now.

I don't know really what to ask as its early on in my treatment, I'm kinda at the mercy of my doctor and the clinic. I came mainly to see if there were similarities to my situation and to get helpful information.

Thanks
