Is there anyone who has experience with chemo and having UC? I recently started chemo and have had diarrhea ever since. I was told that It is a possible side effect with this chemo med (taxol). But since I’ve had UC for 21 years I freak when I get diarrhea and am scared 😳 that it will continue after my chemo is completed.

Songlady did. You might do a search on her posts as she’s not posting often now.

I think Lolil is another forum member who posted about chemo a while back. Can your gastro give any helpful input on the D problem? / Old Hat (40+ yrs with left-sided UC; in remission taking Colazal)
