hello john...

i'm len...new to the group.

my 11 year old zachary was recently diagnosed with colitis.

he is on azacol as well.

thankfully flare ups are minor.

 

just a word of experience.

we are always mindful of what zach eats at night and try to be congizant of what causes the flare-ups.

for him, its saucy foods.

perhaps it is diet related for your son as well.

 

good luck

Hey everyone.  I have a question.  My son Adam (12) has been hurting
real bad in his stomach again.  This pain is always worse at night. 
He's not having a flare up, thank God, but the pain is extremely
intense.  My wife even called his ped. GI Doc last night (2:00 am),
just to see if there's anything else to do.

He's already scheduled for another colonoscopy, and the upper GI
soon.  They are also going to be doing more blood work this week.  He
takes his Asacol twice a day, and Bentyl at night.  My question is,
does anyone here experience real bad pain just at night?

Thanks,

John
