Update 7th Sept

whatcanieat:

I’ve had an ECG this morning and I’ve had a visit from both a nurse and a doctor both asking most of the same questions but the nurse was a bit more thorough. They want to keep me on the intravenous steroids, start me on swallowable calcium pills because I’m more at risk of bone thinning, and they want to start me on an IV medication as well. I don’t know if that means I’ll have a permanent drip whilst out of hospital but I guess we’ll find out.

Oh, and my UC has gone from a stage 1 to a stage 3. In three months. I’m not 100% sure what that means exactly but it’s not good.
