I am a 65 year old male with [wiki2="Crohns-Disease"]Crohn's[/wiki2]. Two months ago I had scope and was told my Crohn's was in [wiki2="Remission"]remission[/wiki2], very good news or so I thought it was. Now totally off Emuran (probably sp wrong) was on 2 pills a day for 9 years. Dr put me on Colisted 2 a day. I thought my bowels would settled down wrong things are worse. now I am confined to the house for most of the day. I go to bathroom 5 to 6 times. Went to my family Dr yesterday asked him if I could double up on my Colisted as in reading in the forum people are having great results with this medicine. Now I am on 4 Colisted pills a day and all it seems to do is upset my stomach, no difference. Other than being tired all the time and having no energy I am otherwise healthy. How do I get my bowels under control. Tried Imodium and Metimucial, no difference. Thanks for letting me tell my story. Any advice would be appreciated.
