    Good luck to you.  I have to schedule one myself as I had a very bad flare up. I hope I don’t need a resection.

      I finished them like 3 weeks ago. I am hoping I’m doing better even though I still have discomfort. It’s annoying the pain is there every day.

      It does dampen our hope of ever living well again and facing life with ANTIBIOTICS in them every few weeks or months for the rest of our life!!!!! Everybody says diet and so forth you do ALL those things but you still get the blasted infections what gives!

      I think sometimes the antibiotics are worse than the disease. Good luck on your colonoscopy.
