Do You Have PH And Lymphocytic Colitis?
I decided to make this a topic because it looks like there isn’t a lot of research and information on this condition.
I am asking for myself. New members…I’m a caregiver and do not have PH. I have just been diagnosed with lymphocytic colitis, which is basically inflammation of the large intestines.
What I have read, there isn’t a lot of research and information on this but what is available, describes my symptoms to the letter.
It’s commonly misdiagnosed as irritable bowl syndrome. I spared no details when I met with the doctor prior to my colonoscopy and I think that is what saved me going down the misdiagnosis path. The doctor said to me, “I was thinking IBS at first but now I don’t think so, I think you need a colonoscopy.” Which is apparently the only way to diagnose lymphocytic colitis.
I’m relieved it’s nothing serious but also relieved to know what is causing my symptoms. I haven’t been instructed yet on what if anything I can do to deal with it. If you have experience with this I would appreciate your input.
