I have received the same e-mail from you again on 11/03/09. Now, I am responding to your request via our comment section. I hope, you will read the following information. As a former patient myself, I am intimately familiar with a terrible problem of side effects associated with UC medications. Just remember that these medications are designed to just manage the symptoms of the disease rather than to address or eliminate the underlying cause of the suffering. That is why as a medical professional, I have researched, developed, and tested a better way to heal our colon. My program (if followed precisely) will help your son to heal his gut once and for all. His UC is a complex medical problem, which requires professional attention and care. So, I can help your child in two ways: 1. Either immediately through individualized consultation. Here is the link to my consultation page: http://www.knowyourgut.com/consultation/index.html Should you decide to consult with me, purchase the consultation program online, and e-mail to me your phone number, so we can schedule initial consultation with you and your son. 2.Or later this year, my Step by Step Colitis Manual will be published. However, it needs to be noted that we are all biologically different, and therefore for serious and chronic cases there is no substitute for personal healing program that would be based on patient's specific conditions, medical history and tests. Whatever you decide to do, know that my heart goes out to you and your boy. Best Wishes of Health and Recovery, Galina Kotlyar MS, RD Dear Susan:

He has tried Prednisone, Lialda, and Asacol. His symptoms are not quite under control yet. His doctor wants to put him on Prednisone (30 mg.) right now then wean him off. He also wants him to continue with Asacol. But he also wants him to take mercaptopurine. This drug kills cancer cells but also used for IBD. My son and I have researched this drug. It can cause loss of fertility. When we asked the doctor his opinion on this, he said there was nothing that proves this can happen. My son doesn't want to take this drug. The doctor said he could try Remicade. This drug can cause cancer & lower the ability of the immune system to fight infections including TB. Some patients have died from these infections. I am really at a loss here. I am angry that the medical establishment doesn't have a better way of dealing with UC. I know you have/had UC. Please point me in the right direction to help my son deal with this terrible disease!! There has to be a better way to heal the colon. Thank you. Susan Dear Galina,
