Suggest Treatment For Chronic Collagenous Colitis
I have had chronic collagenous colitis for 2-1/2 years with little relief. What can I do to help myself? After being diagnosed with it, I was put on Endocort with very little change. Had to stop after a couple months of use. Then tried it later on a second & third time with NO relief whatsoever. Am now taking nothing for it besides Immodium and Lomotil. It remains chronic having Bork movements 20-30 times per day, EVERY DAY. 6 months after the onset of the diarrhea, I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia. Between the two, I m really struggling. Any suggestions?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this is the fibromyalgia then it is a kind of functional disease, passing the stool three to four times in day is normal one and of that not necessary to take the Imodium because it is simply check the diarrhea but may not eradicate the infection if is ever there, I would suggest to try Tab Clinidium with Chlordiazepoxide three times in day and try to come out of the stress, and just to rule out the doubt of infection Tab Sacnidazole 1 g single dose can be tried, hope this information helps.
