How to manage microscopic (lymphocytic) colitis?

I'm sorry to hear you have colitis. I would say that in my experience with budesonide I haven't encountered any side effects, though I don't think you're wrong about everything having side effects. the one drawback of budesonide is that eating too much tryptophan according to one new study reduces the effectiveness of budesonide.
here's to feeling better!

@hoops17 thank you for your sharing your experience. I will keep an open mind on having a colonoscopy and looking into treatment for the colitis. I have been fortunate in having good health except for arthritis. Celebrex was great for keeping me active but can no longer take it- only medication for pain is Tylenol which is not very effective. I am careful with what I eat and that helps. I'll give it a few months to see if being careful with what I keeps it under control.
thanks,
