Long story short, been diagnosed with UC for 4 years, same old symptoms we all know about (blood, pain, mucus, cramp, urgency to bathroom)... I have started my inflixmab treatment and just finished by 3rd infusion, again I might be boasting here but it cleared all my symptoms I have mentioned previously (thank god!)

However, the problem with narrow, thin stool certain days of the week, feeling of constipation even with metamucil, water, fibre untill its time for me to go to the bathroom, that has continued to this day (lot better then before but still lingering)

Is this another 'symptom' that needs to be treated? or is this just 'how life is for a UC diagnosed person?

The odd thing is i only seem to go to the bathroom in the morning after waking up or after a cardio workout (intense running or hit), I usually work out 6 days a week but there are many days I cant workout in the morning and really ruins my day if Im really feeling bloated. AND it is proper stool when I go to the bathroom, not mucus or water or blood as well.

Anyone else comment on this? Thanks again
