Reply to "Are there any natural replacements for Mesalamine (Lialda)?"

Another thing to point out is that clinical remission (improved symptoms) and endoscopic remission (visual proof of mucosal healing) are not synonymous. Doctors have found that you really need to strive for endoscopic remission. Many of us were lulled into complacentcy by assuming we were doing well because our symptoms improved, but the inflammation remained when scoped.

That is where I was and why I wound up on Remicade and Imuran.
