Reply to "Uceris"

The OP still has her colon, so is considering trying Uceris to avoid colectomy. Uceris has the same ingredient as Entocort (budesonide), that some here take for pouchitis or Crohn's of the pouch. The difference is that Uceris is delayed release for treatment of the colon.

So, I'm not sure if it is a long term solution for her, as it is not a replacement for steroid treatment. It is just for induction of remission as far as I know and can still cause adrenal suppression when used long term. Could be worth a try though...
