If it is bright red blood, then it is probably coming from your rectum, which is no big deal. Try using a cortisteriod cream on the outside of your rectum.

Also, it raised my Good cholesterol (HDL) by the same 10 points. Also, I recently bought some Welch's Heart healthy grape juice, as it is suppose to ...

Hi, yes, I have Iritis. I also got it about a year after I got MC. I have found that it coincides with how bad my tummy is. When I am doing well, my eyes are pretty normal.

Good description, I am looking skeletal right now. It is scary and depressing. 5'5 and 101lbs....weight keeps dropping. Problem is, the only things I can eat right now are sooooo non-fattening. Any suggestion girls?
