I was just diagnosed with colitis (unknown type) and after a lifetime of high fiber diet, loving fruits and veggies, nuts, am on a very low fiber diet. It kills me to eat white bread and cook my few veggies to mush! Going on2-3 months with colitis at age 75, and not yet under control. Still eating Imodium daily. Doc put me on mesalamine which helps but I need a higher dose. We just installed 2 Kohler toilets with bidet in the seat- a Godsend for keeping my rear end clean…. Oh the maladies are endless when it comes to autoimmune diseases! I have 7 and wonder what is next. Hopefully I have my fair share and no more in the wings! I hope we all get some good relief! Diarrhea is the pits or should I say the shits?! Gotta keep a sense of humor to survive all this 😊

My gi has prescribed 3mg Budesinide every 48 hrs which has helped some with my collageounes colitis. However we are now going to increase the dosage.
But yes, colitis is one of the worst ailments I can think of.
Good luck to all of us.
