@astaingegerdm I will go back if I need to. We have been keeping in touch with email. Dr Schaffner asked that a couple of test be run this Fall so my PCP was able to get them done here and sent the results to him. I realized that the budesonide was successful before so I analyzed what was going on in my life that could be contributing to the onset of my colitis again and concluded it stemmed from the person I was working under so for my health I had to quit. When I did I did the 8 weeks of budesonide and now my issue has resolved again! So I now know a stressful situation will instigate my microscopic colitis. Now I am not stressed, I am bored! I haven't been without a teaching job since 2012. But I am sure I will adjust.
