Constant Pain, Blood and Depression with Ulcerative Colitis

Diagnosed in 1998. This is my 3rd hospital stay with a flare-up. they get worse each time.
Solumedrol worked before, but is not doing the trick this time. Constant pain, blood, depression, you know the drill. Can’t take pain meds so i can be lucid enough to run to the toilet 40 times each day. been here a week now. Considering upping solumedrol again, remicade, or god-help me, surgery at this point. It is so depressing to know so many of us are so sick. and to know i was really fine just a few short months ago. Now i don’t see the light at the end of the tunnel.
((This was an entry from an anonymous UC person earlier today) I sure hope some relief comes to you soon!.  I have not heard about the medication solumedrol yet, so hopefully some others might be able to comment on that colitis medication
