Reply to "Still Struggling"

Scott,

I have not been tested for anything. I am still seeing just my surgeon, but I have had an app to see my gastro doc for a few months and that app is finally a couple weeks away. Is there certain things I should maybe talk to my gastro doc about?

So it is common and okay to be on antibiotics pretty constantly? I wasn't sure what the negative effects were of staying on them long term. 

My best days really are just me not going to the bathroom as constantly and not having as much or as painful cramping. They are me not having to focus so much on my "problems." I do have a lot of gas pain as well, but have been really dieting to combat that. Some nights I sleep better than others, but like last night for example, even while I am on antibiotics and ate a healthy meal early last night, I woke up almost every hour and barely was able to go.

I struggled for a long, long time with UC, and just am to a point now where I am hoping I will ever get to "be normal." Will I ever start sleeping better, or be able to really go wherever and whenever I want?

Thanks a bunch!

Brad
