Hi,
Back again with more symptoms. :sad: Does anyone have bowel problems that are connected to Lupus?
Ive had problems for a few months now. Ive had a colonoscopy and understand they think its some sort of colitis. Infective or inflammatory not sure yet as not received the follow up appointment yet.
The GP has in the meantime put me back on Prednisilone 20 mgs to try and clear it up maybe... shes not sure but said its worth a try to get me through Christmas.
Its much better in the last few days since Ive been on the Pred. and its also done wonders for my ever increasing joint inflammation of late.
I read something about some bowel problems being related to auto-immune disease. Just wondered if anyone else had developed symptoms like this with Lupus too.
Im thinking that if they say it can attack any part of your system it could be attacking my bowel.
Just a thought. If anyone has any information on this or experience of it I would be grateful to hear.
Thanks
