Thank you for the additional info. If Sulfasalizine is helping you, you are wise to stick with it. I am curious as to what dose you are on. I was on 2grams maintenace dose, more if I needed it. The first diagnosis was UC, but 20 years later my small intestine started to have small ulcers and I had extra lab work and it was proclaimed Crohn's. (Same treatment). I went on Low Dose Naltrexone and it allowed my sm. intestine to heal and put me in remission. I really wonder if it would help you. Look it up. There is lots to read about it. I've been on it for 6 years now at 2 mg. Your positive thoughts are welcome.

Unfortunately, I am unfamiliar with UC and treatments, and I feel for what you are going through. Hopefully you are getting good medical treatment, and you will improve. I have heard about Low Dose Naltrexone used as a novel chronic pain treatment. I will ask my rheumatologist about his, thank you for the info.
