Thank you for the info on budesonide, that's what I take, nothing else can control the colitis. When I stop taking it the symptoms return in a week to 10 days and it takes months before I feel anything resembling normalcy once I get back on the budesonide. I don't know what I'm going to do if I have to permanently stop taking it. My whole life has changed do to this condition. Other than the colitis I am a healthy 79 year old, walk twice a day, many miles, workout and maintain my big house by myself. I have never had anything resembling this condition in my life.

I just started taking budesonide. What is the dosage you take?
They have me on 2 capsules a day (3 MG each) which I think seems like a lot seeing as I’m also on a blood thinner.
