What could be going on?

Mema,

I definitely have cramping when I have cuffitis. It is like a spasm, but creates a feeling of urgency. I'm also on Salofalk (canadian Canasa) and Proctofoam, and waiting to feel better.
Seems to be a lot of this going around lately. Every night I go to bed and hope that tomorrow will be a bit better. Sadly Canasa doesn't seem to be super-fast working. Be patient (I'm losing mine)and come back tomorrow and tell us how great you are starting to feel.
Hope you feel better.

Thanks C-jay...we sound very similar. I felt fine yesterday, and I thought that I had rounded the corner, just don't get it.

My cramping is more like a constant stomach ache that doesn't go away. I was okay all morning until I had the delicious jelly donut and pumpkin coffee and thought that maybe it had something to do with sweets. I, too, have urgency, and because I don't empty completely when I go, I'm back and forth until some of the ache goes away a bit.

I guess I was feeling too good a few weeks ago. Should have realized that it was too good to be true as it's rare that I feel as good as I did. Always have one ache or pain of some kind in my pouch.

Will wait a few more days and use a few more suppositories, hopefully it will take time as you said. If I don't feel better, I guess I'll contact my doctor "again"....grrrr!!!! It's very hard to be patient, it's been a VERY long time with a lot of things happening since last April, and I'm getting a bit depressed.

Thanks for your support!!! Hope you feel better as well.

How are you feeling today Mema?
I'm starting to think I am getting better, but it's slooooowwwww.
And who knows how things will be when I am well enough to start tapering off the meds I am taking right now.
I hear you though, it is frustrating and depressing when we're not feeling well. And I also have been dealing with this cuffitis issue on and off for almost a year now.

Maybe you need more than just Canasa.

Feel better soon,
