Suffering from ulcerative colitis for past 17 years. Diagnosed the problem 17 years back and taken ayurvedic medication for initial 10 years. Left the medicine after 10 years and the things were going best. From the past 2 years the situation has become worst as again the bleeding started and now even Ayurvedic medication does not seem to cure the same. Facing minor bleeding daily even after taking steroids and ayurvedic medicine.
