Anybody diagnosed with microscopic colitis?

Posted by bobthebuilder54 @bobthebuilder54, Oct 12, 2011

Hi, wondering if anybody here has this for a dx. I have been having a flare for about two months, it is getting a little better with the meds but the doctor wants me to go on a short dose of steriods. I already have a muscle disease so hate to go the steriod route, (plus do not need to gain weight) lol. But if anyone has any hints for me I would appreciate it on how to control this. It is the longest flare I have had.

@kayabbott I am also allergic to all medications with Tylenol - anaphylactic shock allergic, throat closes up and hives on top of hives! This started around 2010. Sometimes I feel like a real mess. I did get a bracelet to wear during covid, in case I ended up in the hospital. I know they gave Tylenol for that during covid - was afraid the meds would kill me 🙂 I did get covid, and have a small heart issue since then, but nothing to worry about yet any way. Nice talking with you.

@lpockat Allergic to acetaminophren is bad. NSAIDs are hard on damaged GI tracts and on kidneys. Please check with your doctor to see if there are other options.
