How can I help my husband cope with ulcerative colitis?
Every time he has a flare up, I can see that it really bothers him. I would like to be able to offer him whatever support he needs, but I don’t always know how to do this without making him too uncomfortable. Plus, I don’t want to make too big a deal of it if he doesn’t want to talk about it. Anyone who struggles with this disease or who is involved with someone who has it and could offer me advice would be great.

Scar tissue from gall bladder removal surgery; what can do to get rid of it and the pain?
I had gall bladder removal surgery back in February.

The pain also finds me if I sit for long periods of time and then get up. Is it scar tissue from the surgery or intense pain that I had prior to the removal? If so, what do I do to get rid of it?
