Guest guest Posted December 27, 2008 Report Share Posted December 27, 2008 Hi Ellen and everyone, Well Kayla did have the blood transfusion on Friday. She went to the dr. after that and her dr. wants her to start Asacol also. So now she is on Humira every week, 35 mg. of Prednisone and Asacol 3x per day. I feel we have been very strict but she is still bleeding! One thing she did have for a couple of days was the spaghetti squash which I think might have been too early to try. Basically she is having only the soup (chicken with carrots), hamburger meat, cheddar cheese, homemade yogurt, ripe bananas, cooked and peeled apples and pears, eggs, turkey, honey, cinnamon for seasoning, oh and the dry curd cottage cheese. Am I doing something wrong?? Shouldn't the bleeding be stopping? Between the diet and the meds she is on, this is worrying me that she still has the blood and the diarreah and it has been almost 3 weeks. She gets some gas pains too. She started running a low grade fever yesterday also, but today it was gone. Therese with Kayla (13 1/2 with UC diagnosed in 2006) > > Hi Therese, > > Thanks for the update on Kayla.
