sometimes you just can't win....

So after my last post my doc upped to 4 lialda a day and I'd been doing great. However after having no bm yesterday and picking at thanksgiving dinner, I felt so bloated and icky I opted to drink a bit if coffee....which typically only results in a quick trip to the bathroom. Well I guess that flare was not done as I thought because now that my body is empty of the usual my guts feel it would be a good idea to empty me of blood as well. *sugh* just came to feel in good company....can't exactly explain that to anyone here lol!!!


Hope everyone had a good thanksgiving!!!!

sounds like the blood was there and the coffee just hurried it out. I hope the bleeding stops.

Never underestimate IBD remember it has a mind of it's own...we should always expect "blips" even while in remission/doing great for a while...IBD likes to show us who's boss...nature of the nasty beast.

Hopefully you'll improve over the next few days and feel as good as you were feeling before this lets call it a "blip" and hope it's not the start of something nasty.
