The American health care system disgusts me. I don't have any advice on how to get you the proper care that you need. However...I have a little advice on what might ease the pain slightly. No raw food diet !! OWWIE when you're flaring. You need to stick to white bland food. Rice, pasta (rice pasta is best over wheat based), potatoes. NO SAUCES/OILS. Drink broth if you can't handle solids. NO DAIRY. Drink water if your tummy can handle it. Hot water with ginger is good. You can try veggies--broccoli, cauliflower, carrots--but they must be very steamed. I suggest only eating ONE type for a day to see if it irritates your bum. I wish I could help you. I am so sorry. Also, if you are taking prednisone on your own be VERY careful. How much are you taking? YOU CAN NOT STOP TAKING IT!!! You must now taper it. If you were to suddenly stop taking it you could die. Please be careful. I'm going to post a link for you on the bottom of this page. It is a forum for sufferers of Ulcerative Colitis. There are many of us from all over the world. I'm hoping if you post that you'll find some Americans that will have some information for you on how to get help in your state. Please go. http://www.healingwell.com/community/default.aspx?f=38&p=1&x=25&ord=ld<br><b>References : </b><br>I have Ulcerative Colit (am 24 like you). Suffered like you are now for YEARS, but am fortunate to live in Canada where I can get proper care for free (somewhat). Wow, I am so sorry to hear about your situation.
