Ulcerative Colitis is a disease which varies in the intensity of its symptoms, when symptoms are mild to non existent it is described as in remission but when symptoms get bad it is described as a flare up.

During an Ulcerative Colitis flare up what is going on ?
Well the colon has become inflamed which causes diarrhea, and ulcerations which lead to bleeding from the colon, these symptoms are also accompanied by really painful abdominal cramping which can leave you doubled over in agony, as well as fever, dehydration and weight loss.
In a bad Ulcerative Colitis flare up the diarrhea is very painful with blood and mucus coming out and can be up to 30 times a day. Usually it happens more at night and in the early morning and it leaves you feeling exhausted not just because of the diarrhea but the interrupted sleep as well.
In this state you really need to eat plenty to get some nutrition however eating can cause absolute agony due to the stomach cramping which the food passing through can produce.
It is often difficult to eat and soups (chicken stock) and soft steamed vegetables are a good option, along with soft white rice, and steamed fish, these seem to be the least painful to eat. If its really bad just stick to some good homemade soups.
Anybody who has had a flare up knows how awful it can be, but it is difficult to explain to someone who hasn’t been there quite how awful the pain can be.
