Hello again.
Well, I made it through the colonscopy yesterday. And the results are...inflammed colon with multiple ulcers scattered throughout. Doc took several biopsies and I have to go back in a week for the results. The biopsies were taken to "rule out microscopic changes or infections". So, they have not "diagnosed" me yet but I am being put on Lialda. 2 pills a day, twice a day.
Nurse said multiple ulcers are common in CD and UC patients. Is that true? I don't know where the ulcers are. Also, if anyone here is on or has tried Lialda, can you share your experiences with me? Of course, the list of complications is very long.
Thank you again for sharing.
