Suggest Remedy For Abdominal Pain And Constipation Due To Crohn's Disease

Hi there.
I am a 23 year old female patient with crohn's disease in my illeum. I had a relapse in my disease after months of remission and my GI have put me on flagyl, cipro and prednisone 30mg daily for two weeks. I have had an ultrasound that showed mild focal thickened proximal illeum. I have finished the course of antibiotics and started tapering prednisone dosage to 25mg yet I am still suffering from more than 10 pain attacks per day with constipated stomach. Do you suggest increasing my prednisone dosage or shall I wait for respond?

Thank Yiu
