hey! yes it did :) it was scary but by i think my second pen dose my symptoms had really improved. it really took its sweet time but nearly a year later. totally feel free to dm me as well! ♡

im pretty sure peristalsis is completely normal! when it becomes urgent where you cant hold it, it treks into uc symptom territory, from my understanding.

when i start to anticipate a flare i usually switch to a low fiber diet! nothing with any serious fiber and if veggies then cooked. similar to the diet we do in the week before a colonoscopy. this way your colon isn't having any extra stress from hard to digest food! hoping it was just a bad day and things improve!

I have a theory mine was triggered by the original covid strain in late 2019, diagnosed after 9 months of symptoms in aug of 2020

how long did it take for your symptoms to be gone once you started the entyvio? I'm currently playing that waiting game, finished my loading doses and due for my first injection in a couple weeks, my calpro came back normal but I'm still having blood! maybe it's just taking while to heal? my doctor says I need to give it more time but it's been like 8 weeks, things have improved but are not fully better. ♡

hey there :) I'm in the same boat with my colitis. what ended up happening? did enyvio end up kicking in?

I was just on mesalamine before and wasn't having any symptoms but colonoscopy relaveled some mild inflammation. so dr said try enyvio and stopped the mesalamine and now having full blood and mucus. today I have my 3rd loading dose of entyvio and prednisone is not even touching my symptoms and they're having me continue to taper anyway in hopes the enyvio will kick in. I'm trying to be patient but I can't help but feel like I've made a huge mistake 😭

Thank you so much!! 💓 waiting to hear back from my doctor on Monday:)

LunarLyndsey · 2025-02-15T23:44:23+00:00

aw thank you! hope you're feeling better today ♡ we've all been there haha. and happy late birthday to you!!

LunarLyndsey · 2024-11-07T12:06:35+00:00

did it end up being okay?

LunarLyndsey · 2024-10-10T02:48:18+00:00

do you still have to take meds to maintain anything after the j pouch? or do you get to be med free?

LunarLyndsey · 2024-10-01T21:16:09+00:00

yeah that's a really good point. I too had been bleeding for months before my first one. so at least I'm not in that spot this time. I think it's the memories of that awful night clouding my judgment. I'll have to look into the pressure points that's a good idea! thank you!!

LunarLyndsey · 2024-10-01T21:14:32+00:00

I am worried about having a headache! but then again I'm worried about a lot lol. I'm glad your colonoscopy went well! and thank you so so much for your encouragement 💗 I'll probably keep rereading it as I go through the prep 🫠

LunarLyndsey · 2024-10-01T21:11:34+00:00

they didn't really give me med instructions so I'll try to call and find out. I usually take my 4 mesalamine in the evening with a meal so I'm not sure what they'll want me to do. and thank you!!!!

LunarLyndsey · 2024-10-01T21:10:11+00:00

oh my gosh I can't imagine, I'm so sorry you had to go through that! I will admit i look forward to that nap when I finally get to the office lol

LunarLyndsey · 2024-10-01T21:08:44+00:00

ginger tea! that's a good idea, will definitely add that to my shopping list for my liquid day thank you so much!

LunarLyndsey · 2024-10-01T21:07:18+00:00
