    I sure hope u can get on the right track. Maybe the stronger meds will work for you. Ask about maybe an antibiotic for the infections. Although antibiotics make me feel worse so who knows. I can understand amd attest to the frustration. Idk, God has to have a plan.

    Update: I have started trying some holistic meds to cover uc and crohns. I have chamomie tea, aloe drink, mg and na suppliments, probiotic pills and activia, ginger and cinnimon.

    I have a great doctor who actually listened to me. You know hes the only one yet to look me in the eye and shut up for once instead of feeding you your symptoms and assuming they were right. I did have to drive 2 hours to see him and wait a while but once I was in he was very kind. He knew I...

    Update: Just saw the doctor and he said I probably have an IBD based on my symptoms but I need a colonoscopy to determine what I have. He said crohns, UC or ciliac. Thank you all for the responses.
