Is the gastroenterologist, who is treating you for gastritis, the same physician who made the diagnosis of lymphocytic colitis?
Collagenous colitis and lymphocytic colitis are inflammatory conditions of the colon that cause persistent watery diarrhea. Some researchers believe that collagenous colitis and lymphocytic colitis are different phases of the same condition rather than separate conditions.
The staff of the Mayo Clinic include nausea along with chronic, watery diarrhea, abdominal pain or cramps, weight loss and fecal incontinence as signs and symptoms of collagenous colitis and lymphocytic colitis.
Diagnosis is made by performing a colonscopy, collecting a sample of colon tissue and laboratory analysis of the tissue to look for signs of disease.
Are you taking any measures to keep lymphocytic colitis under control?
