Not sure where to begin.
I've had stomach issues as far back as I can remember. Was diagnosed with Microscopic Colitis several years ago, which actually feels worse than Crohn's Disease at times. Have been taking Entocort when I'm desperate and it doesn't always work. There are nights that I don't sleep because I'm in the bathroom most of the time.
Have been taking an antidepressant (Nortriptylene) for about 6 to 8 years, mainly to help with headaches & one of the side effects is suppose to be constipation which obviously doesn't happen & am wondering if it's making the Colitis worse. My doctor isn't helping since I feel most of them don't know any "natural" ways to help & rely on meds for the answers. If there were any type of surgery to make this go away, I'd do it!!
