I can’t undo my diversion Ileostomy because my large intestine doesn’t function properly. I did read an article referring to Proctitis being a localized colitis. Following dairy free could possibly help. Mesalamine enemas caused me severe abdominal cramping, worse than the symptoms, but not everyone has that side effect. There are other options. I’m having a zoom conference with Mayo GI tomorrow. My symptoms were very bad after I had a flex Sig and a 4-5 hour motility study. It is not that severe anymore and the pain comes and goes.
