Repeat Collagenous Colitis "flare"

My GI doc called in a script for Budesonide a week after I relapsed Sadly this time it did nothing. So I’m left with only anti diarrheals

The open question we will start drilling into next month is
*is microscopic colitis relapsing, or
*is the current issue another variation of bowel inflammation

The “colon calming” diet i am on is to create the best intestinal state possible to further assess.

pb50 and debhammel - After some back-and-forth (by portal) with my GI CRNP yesterday we decided that we would try Budesonide (3-months) again and if the results is not longer lasting than a month or two, that I'll go into the office and discuss other options. She said that even though she does not prescribe daily Budesonide she has ordered the 3-month treatment i.e. 3 times in a year.
I like one of the options pb50 offered, "*is the current issue another variation of bowel inflammation." This is very plausible. Thanks all. Faye

Hi, what's a colon calming diet and is it a diet you are on all the time? Thx

Update to add that I am two weeks into a 9 week course of 9mg a day and my symptoms are much improved this time.
