    I did do a cycle of Test and dbol a couple of years ago with no issues.
    did the cycle cure the flare ups

    No, my flares ups stop a few years before my first cycle.

    Iv had it since i was 15. iv taken most drugs out there. Iv have spent many nights in the hospital with the longest being a month, people thought I was on my death bed. Iv done natural therapies. Depending on how bad your symptoms are I would suggest a therapy. Best thing to do is to find a supportive doc. Also when you get a flare up get a stool test done, sometimes its an infection which can be treated with antibotics.

    Look into vsl#3 its a probiotic. I had a flare up and i took a high dose of it in about 4 days symptoms started to subside and on day 9 i was fine. These probiotics is like taking an entire bottle in only one pouch. Another thing dont let your doctor convince you that natural therapies dont work. (they dont work according to doctors because theirs no research behind it). keep a positive mind, chill out, plan each day so your not stressing out. If you are in a relationship make sure she/he is supportive. PM me if you need any help or advise.

    I dont want to say it would be ok to do it because I don't know anyone that's been on a cycle with flare ups. Are you on asacol? Knowing what I know now regarding steroids and if I had minimal flares ups I would most likely take a cycle. I think the issue is if taking test will effect in any negitive way? Not sure about that one. I don't think high dosages of test (i.e. 500mg PW) would have negitive effects. This is only my opinion.
