I am diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis. My doctor wants to try a new medication as the old one (Lialda) was not working well. He said he is going to put me either on Asacol or Sulfasalazine but isn't sure which yet. He plans to do some research and talk to other doctors first. That's fine...
I have Ulcerative Colitis and have been in a flare for about six months now. My doctor has changed medications twice and nothing seems to be working. Does anyone know how long a typical UC flare will last for? Other than medication, is there anything I can do to shorten the duration?
I found this site searching about burping and h.pylori. Is the sulfur smell gone yet or does it continue to persist? I am thinking of asking my doctor to test me as I have the same issue as you.
