Ulcerative colitis (UC) is an unpredictable condition. Even when you do everything right by taking your medication as prescribed, keeping your doctor's appointments, and making lifestyle changes, symptoms may return without warning. These can be some of the lowest moments with UC. Just when you settle into remission and begin to feel better, resuming a normal routine, symptoms can suddenly return, bringing back the bleeding, urgency, and fatigue. Although flare-ups are common with the disease, they can be frustrating and confusing. In the stories ahead, people with ulcerative colitis share their lowest points and what helped them move forward.
