What to do if i have had ulcerative colitis for several moths now and am looking for anything that might help me?

UC is dangerous: At 50 you need to be seeing a gastroenterologist as UC can cause severe bleeding as well as colon cancer. That being said, you need to keep a good food record and avoid anything that seems to make it worse as well as increasing the things that make it better. Theses are not the same for everyone. It is important to eat a healthy diet and avoid binges or "quack" treatment even if from a doctor
