N. S., India

I, B. EK. Nair Pin Number 16285, have been suffering from ulcerative colitis since last ten years. It started with severe gas accumulating in the stomach and constant urge to pass stools and gas along with it. But mostly I would pass out lot of gas with small quantity of stool. The stools were semi solid, with mucus and very offensive, around 5-6 times per day. The gas formation was so severe that even while passing urine the gas would come out forcefully with out my control. This would make me feel very embarrased due to the continuous gas formation. I had consulted with gastroenterologist and undergone colonoscopy and was diagnosed as having Ulcerative Colitis. The Doctor advised me to take medicines like Mesacol 400mg, entoform enema, which I continued for 1 year with some relief. However I was told to continue mesacol for life long which i didn`t want to. With this disturbed frame of mind I approached Dr Shah`s clinic for these complaints. With in 2 months of starting the treatment, I have responded positively to the treatment, I feel 50% better now. The frequency of stool has reduced to 2-3 times per day and the gas formation has also reduced. I had stools which were well formed, with no blood or mucus. Within 4 months of treatment, I have responded very well and achieved 80% improvement in my condition. The frequency of stool is still 2-3 times, but it is well formed and no blood, no mucus in stools, no pain at all. The gas formation has reduced drastically. I am very happy and thank ful to Dr Shah as mentally also I feel very relaxed and my embarrassment has reduced. I am hopeful that my need for Mesacol will also reduce with continuous treatment
