Hi,

You need to get her colonoscopy done first to confirm the diagnosis of ulcerative colitis.

And if it is there, it can be managed to a good extent. For that you need to show her to a gastro specialist to start her on steroids and antiinflammatory medicines to control the symptoms, so that she is able to go to work again.

Her weakness can be due to anaemia. Get her hemogram done to find out.

Don't loose heart, in todays world, there is hardly anything that can't be managed in medical science.

Regards
Dr. Ashish Verma
