Suggest Treatment For Ulcerative Proctitis In A Child
Hi I have a 10yr old daughter with ulcerative proctitis, she has had it for 15mths now and tried lots of medications with no improvement. She has lost 10kg and her hair is breaking off. She has some great doctors who have performed 2 colonoscopies and taken bloods etc but we are no closer to getting on top of this disease. Do you have any suggestioins of where to go or what to do next.

Hi...by what you quote I feel that it could be ulcerative colitis. I suggest you investigate her on this line which might help in arriving at the diagnosis.
