I have ulcerative colitis in the last 20cm of the intestine (colon) and I've tried several different treatments including Asacol and salofalk drugs (pills, enemas etc), corticosteroids and azathioprine (Imuran), but it was no use, since the disease's syptoms remain. So I would be grateful if someone who managed to control this illness could answer me and tell me in short what drugs he/she used and whether he/she followed a diet (and what kind of diet). I know that there is always the surgical solution but it is my last option.As regarding the cortisone it was Medrol 16mg
