I was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis years ago and was wondering if I could find another person who has it. I have been prescribed both mesalimine and dicyclomine, and I stay away from most lactose. (I can handle cheese fine, strangely enough.

I have it too. My understanding is that gastrointestinal issues are a common issue for autistic people.

No, I don't have this condition, but I have celiac disease and IBS. Fun.
