    Hi isn't it a B disease

    I'm in a massive flair at the moment and like you I'm definitely not losing weight and still enjoying my food but I'm certain it's UC after numerous tests.

    Is the blood bright red, do you have just spotting with it or a lot

    How often do you have camera

      Mostly bright red, sometimes a little darker but hard to tell if that is mixed with the stool. Not massive amounts, very little cramping. I can have somewhat normal movements for a day or two then return to the looser ones with blood. How long do your flairs last, this has been going on for while after nothing for years. On and off for about 15-20 years. Frustrating!

      Same here, flair can last a couple of weeks but have had 11 months and now 4 months and pretty bad, like you red and some darker, not always diarrhea but often constipation and I am loose today after a prawn dish from Indian last night I think not good, trying salofalk suppositories but suppose it want work fast, felt hot and cold earlier but think making sure to keep hydrated is good
