Pain in right hand
I'm currently tapering from a flare of ulcerative
colitis
. I've managed to get to 11mg and hoping to get to 7.5mg. I was splitting my dose 6am and 2pm but I've got incredible pain in my fingers on my right hand and they swell up and down too. A little swelling in my left hand but no pain.

I recently posted here about pain on my left side after an ulcerative
colitis
flare. I’ve been having this pain since October and was given antibiotics for diverticulitis.

Gastroscopy and Colonoscopy for CKD patients
My mother died at the age of 57 due to ulcerative
colitis
becoming cancer, and so that is another reason. Normally my GFR is around 55, and Kreatin level not in the healthy range, but not excessively so. Is it safe for me with CKD to take the laxatives that will be prescribed to me?

2nd colonoscopy next week
Just got word, someone cancelled, gotta stop apixaban for 3 days, not too bothered cos I aint had an af episode since diagnosis if I did the beta blocker would let me know.3 days just seems over cautious, it has a short effect time I believe

Can you tell NICE what you think of a draft decision aid for chronic primary pain?
It is different to chronic secondary pain, which the NICE guideline describes as pain that can also be secondary to (caused by) an underlying condition (for example, osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, ulcerative
colitis
, endometriosis).

Awaiting results
The initial findings from colonoscopy stated ‘multiple small ulcers’ which biopsy samples were taken from and also noted ‘indistinct vascularity’ which was biopsied too and ‘inflammation of the mucosa’ …. all of these seem to point towards a diagnosis of
Colitis
….. but they needed me to have the CT

New Way to Get More Iron
I have been diagnosed with several autoimmune diseases in the past years, and because of celiac, and microscopic
colitis
, my nutritional needs have not been met for quite a while. Specifically I was not getting enough iron. I tried all of the varieties, and read about the absorption rates .

colitis
type syndrome that can lead to pain and bleeding and then is gone completely.

Help interpreting results
I’ve also had some symptoms of ulcerative
colitis
including an elevated calprotectin test but still waiting to see gastroenterology about this. It runs in my family but symptoms currently under control.

Blood In Stool Relief
I found out that I didn’t have a tumor or any polyps, the bleeding is coming from
Colitis
. They took a biopsy to figure out what’s triggering it so they can decide how to treat it. It sucks but I was very relieved to find out what was wrong with me.

Adhesions?
In 2007 I was diagnosed with Ulcerative
Colitis
and had the worst flare in mid November, since I was diagnosed. I was diagnosed with endometriosis/adenomyosis by lap and MRI in July 2021 at the age of 45. On Friday, I had a colonoscopy as I am still suffering with symptoms from my UC flare.

Azathioprine question
I have been taking Azathioprine for ulcerative
colitis
for 30+ years but recently my consultant has told me to come off it as at my age the risks outweigh the benefits.
