Stool consistency while on vancomycin and its significance

Hello @mhi. I've been losing weight too - 21 lbs. since mid-November. However, that's when I was taken off Prednisone and Actemra (GCA) because my WBC and neutrophils were too low. I'm back on Actemra, every two weeks now, but still losing weight. I'm also being investigated for UC/Crohns, etc. so doctors are unsure which is causing what.
While I'm delighted to be losing some of the 50 lbs. I gained while on Prednisone, it's a bit of a worry too. Has anyone else experienced that much weight loss after stopping Prednisone? Would love to hear from you! My best, Laurie

Hello I have been struggling with the weight gain but I had cdiff and lost the weight and having a hard time putting it back on and was told it is normal not to be able to gain quickly after c Diff. Did you have cdiff? Can a colonoscopy diagnose UC/crohn’s or a CT?
