Dealing with UC Flares: What to Expect from Your Doctor

What happens after I tell my doctor I’m having a flare up? My dad thinks they won’t do anything. Anyone have any personal experiences? What do they do? I’ve been having a UC Flare for about 3 months now with blood and severe abdominal cramps and lack of control of movements.

My cousin is hospitalized for a major flare up, I think they are giving him prednisone.

definitely tell ur doctor! (a gi if u have one) they definitely can’t help if they don’t know what’s going on. i had a few bad gi doctors in a row when i first got diagnosed so i basically stopped seeing one for a while + tried to manage it myself but that only made me sooooo much worse. i get infusions now and they were a game changer. good luck!!!
