Hey everyone! I have some serious questions and this page has helped a ton! I had a colonoscopy about a month ago some red patches but probably from prep and biopsies came back great! Which means colitis meds are working. Thing is Friday I had an endoscopy and my entire upper is inflammed, including my small intestines just pretty much everything. I have a non bleeding ulcer in my stomach, and my esophagus has white blood cells all in there. Anyone have experience with this? I also feel constant ache and extreme fatigue. This can't be related to colitis. The doctor is waiting on biopsies to see what's happening just hate waiting and seeing if ANYONE has insight on this. Thanks!

Hmm interesting you cross-posting this in Crohn's, gerd, celiac forums as well.

I believe you're talking about an upper-endoscope. Ulcerative colitis is confined to the large intestine. As such, anything seen in the esophagus, stomach, or small intestine isn't related to a UC diagnosis. It could, however, change your diagnosis from UC to Crohn's. As Crohn's can appear anywhere within your digestive tract.

Yes I posted in those forums because maybe they have insight on endoscopies and since I have colitis already maybe someone had insight on this as well
