lately along with my not so feeling good-ness i hope it isn't arthritis and only oddly displaced pain. It's in my right foot big toe, my left ring finger , my shoulder, my left hip, and my right knee. It all hurts so bad. I just think the places are weird, it's also weird that it literally appeared overnight and i hope it doesn't stay because the pain makes me want to crawl up in a ball. Has anyone had this problem before?and I know see a doctor but any other advice on what to do?

The same thing happened to me. For me, it was AS, a form of arthritis that can be associated with UC and other IBS issues. This may not be what's going on with you, but here is the link to information if you need to do some research:

Yes, I have had the same symptoms very painful. I had the pain in my wrist, and legs.
Dr. had me taking medication for arthritis which I was against doing. So I did my home work, I started taking calcium 3x's daily(good calcium) and trace minerals (Sam's club has a good brand forgot the name) or u can go on line to find a certain brand. in (2)wks my symptoms were gone, and never returned. I hope that helped.

I'm experiencing the exact same thing. My knees, feet, fingers and wrists are currently giving me jipp. So painful. I'll try the calcium! I too am worried I've developed some kind of UC-related arthritis. And mine also seemed to just appear overnight.

I had the same thing. It was caused by the osteoporosis medicent they put me on-Actonel. I have been trying since last August to get rid of the pain. I had to go back on prednisone but it is finally almost all gone. It did however get really bad in my hip joint. I went to see my neurologist who is also a pain specialst for joints, etc and he gave me a shot of steriod in the joint. It has really helped. I did not want to go on the arthritis medicine either because that is what cause my UC to flare up to begin with.

Drinkables® Colloidal Minerals - 30 oz.
This is the brand of minerals I suggested, 1oz per 100pds, 2x's daily w/calcium 3x's daily.
It worked for me in 2wks, and I was in pain prior to this remedy..

You have been complaining lately of pouch problems. Have you looked into that yet with the Dr.? You may be having extramanifestations of something going on with your pouch. When you resolve that problem, you will probably see everything that is bothering you go away also. When my daughter would start up with her cuffitis, she would get erythema nodosum (painful bumps on legs and arms)until the cuffitis was under control. Look into taking care of your pouch. Hope you feel better soon
