Dealing with UC Flare Up: What to Expect?

I am going to have to call my doctor, I think I’m having another flare up with my UC, what will he do after I tell him? Will I be hospitalized? It’s only been bothering me for about 2 weeks. Will I only be given steroids?

I was only hospitalized for my first flare. After that, my doc and I have always been able to get things back under control with steroids. You will probably not need to go to the hospital unless you become super dehydrated, have a blockage, or otherwise have a serious complication.
