             HI   I"M TED                                                                                DIAGNOSED CROHNS IN 2009  CURRENT MEDS  PENTASA 4 X500MGs TWICE A DAY AND MOVICOLE 1 SACHET TWICE A DAY

The Pentasa has beads in it, the medication realises in the intestines and then the beads pass out in your stool. Nothing to worry about there, its normal to see the beads. As for the explosive D, sometimes the Pentasa can cause that. I would talk to your doctor about it. I take the sister med Asacol, and don't have any problems with it. Good luck!

I don't know what to tell you about the square poops, that's a new one to me...the discomfort you're feeling when inserting the enema is very liikely inflammation, so keep on with the enemas in order to get that under control (proctitis being inflammation of the rectom).

Feel better soon :)
