Gastric Sleeve Surgery with Ulcerative Colitis

Hello all,

I am currently debating sleeve surgery but a little concerned about how it will affect my ulcerative colitis. I am currently taking Asacol as a maintenance drug for my ulcerative colitis with 1-2 flair ups per year. Has anyone with ulcerative colitis had sleeve surgery and if so, did you find it led to any changes with your UC - positive or negative?

Thanks in advance for the help!

-RW

    I have Chrohn’s disease. I am currently in remission. I have not had a flare up since Oct. My surgery was on 12/14. I would say that I have to stay away from a lot of my triggers, so actually my symptoms have been under total control.
