I have been on a very low dose of steroid for almost a month. This steroid is so mild. You do not have to worry about gaining weight on it. However, it is a steroid. I find it it seems to help, however, certain things will trigger the colitis for me. Caffeine, alcohol, certain supplements.

I was given Budesonide years ago for chronic microscopic colitis. However, even though it was meant for strictly the colon, mine was absorbed into my system, and began to affect my adrenal glands. So I've had to stop, and now there is nothing else to take. I am currently taking it, low dose 3 mg every day until I can begin Remicade Infusion, which I am very wary of.
Anyone else taking this? Very eager to hear from someone who is receiving it.
