PMR & IBD connection
Curious to know if anyone has developed IBD after being diagnosed with PMR? I was diagnosed with PMR in January this year and have now been diagnosed with Colitis after having a horrendous 7 weeks and awaiting treatment. I was curious to know if the two are connected in any way. Thoughts greatly anticipated

When people talk about having flares, what does that mean with PMR?
I also have ulcerative colitis and know what it means in that context. With PMR I’m still trying to figure out what my base line is, or even if this is PMR. I was started at 60 mg for possible GCA but they believe that is ruled out (no inflammation markers, negative biopsy). The prednisone totally unlocked

Goodbye Simponi, going to try baricitinib
I have been taking Simponi, a once a month biologic injection, for 6 months now. The effect on my painful joints has been minimal, and it would only last 3 to 4 weeks each month. With the pain, stiffness, and exhaustion I have dealt with all these months, I can't wait to leave it behind. I will be

meningitis vaccine
Do CLL patients who have never had meningitis vaccine need two doses? I am asking about the meningitis vaccine for strains ACWY, such as Menactra, not the Hib/MenC vaccine. It looks like two doses are recommended based on google search but my Dr did not mention getting a second dose.

Has anyone here tried SpoGest-IB probiotic?
Does it work for UC like what they advertised? I'm 46 now and have been living with Ulcerative Colitis for 12 years and experiencing bouts of diarrhea on and off for a long time. I'm currently on Octasa 800mg and want to know if this probiotic can be used alongside my current meds. Any recommendations

Buscopan and it's effectiveness
Have u had a colonoscopy to rule out the obvious! I find buscopan has little effect. Pain like that sounds like trapped gas. Perhaps check your diet. Good luck

Problems with Mesalazine
Hello. I was diagnosed with UC 5 years ago and put on 4000mg a day and 3 suppositories a week. I don’t feel well with water retention and ITI’s. My calprotectin test is 8. Could Pentasa cause my symptoms?

Mesalazine intolerance
Hi Guys, I have been diagnosed Ulcerative Colitis a while back and just been to hospital after a recent flare-up. I'm now home and taking steriods, but I'm also taking mesalazine. My problem is that every time I start taking mezalazine my symptoms get so much worse in just a day or two (night time

I am new here having finally been diagnosed with Crohn’s Colitis having previously told it was Ulcerated Colitis
A belated Merry Christmas everyone. I have finally had it confirmed that I have Crohn’s Colitis but am struggling with a very bad flare up which, so far, has lasted nine weeks. My GP doubled my medication to 4800 mg of Octasa (Mesalazine) a day but, after two weeks, it doesn’t seem to have had any

CR2: Idle-chatter run produces PB 🚨🚨🚨🔔🔔
I set Runkeeper as, on CR1, I’d deviated to take a photo and ran on the spot. So some new stats, I figured, could offer a baseline. ‘Twas not to be. My notes on Runkeeper say: ‘overcast; counterclockwise; pre-lunch; knew we were going faster and pushing’. That’s shows how brief this post could be.

Mesalamine side effects
I recently have been diagnosed with UC and have been prescribed rowasa (mesalamine enema) and lialda (mesalamine oral). Bleeding has reduced however has anyone had issues with white coatings on their stool? Is this normal or should I be concerned?

Rectal prednisolone (UK)
I've been using rectal mesalazine for years as suppositories to help with ulcerative proctitis. I'm suffering from an extended flare, and the local IBD clinic suggested trying a short course of prednisolone suppositories to see if it helps. It turned out that they haven't been available for almost a
