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

Good luck! I will tell you that after about six weeks of Budesonide, my GI suggested that I augment this round of Budesonide with the Pepto Bismol as necessary to be able to leave the house. That was when i researched alternatives to Budesonide when it fails. I taper to zero tomorrow.

For me, that first time miraculous result w/ Budesonide is just not there this time.
