Lymphocytic Colitis
"I have been on Asacol for about 5 years and it has changed my life. I had diarrhea for about 5 years previously and my doctor and 2 specialists couldn&#039;t found anything specific to help it.  We moved to another state where the gastric specialist did uncover the problem and I was started on 6 Asacol daily (2 tablets, 3 X a day). It took about 2 months, and one day my diarrhea completely vanished.  Gone. After about 8 months I began lowering the pills daily, kept on with 4 a day and am now taking 3 Asacol daily for maintenance. For the past 8 years have been swimming 4 X weekly at a wellness center.  Couldn&#039;t do that with bowel problems.  I had a colonscopy in December 2008, 5 days ago, and all is normal.  I&#039;m 72 years."
