And have you been having regular blood tests to make sure you're in the therapeutic range and not in the toxic range of the med?
Yeah, I've been getting blood tests every month/starting to switch to every two months. Never had anything abnormal, except low iron storage occasionally.
The symptom I've been getting is constipation, oddly enough. My frequency will be "normal" (once a day), but it's so painful I could cry. I've been treating it with Restoralax/Miralax, and no one's been able to give me any answers as to what's causing it. I just had a colonoscopy, and I have no strictures and nothing that my GI could see that would cause it. I've had this since last August, within a week of starting on Imuran. I've... temporarily stopped it twice now without permission, and almost immediately that symptom has started to go away both times, so at this point I'm convinced that's the only thing that can be.
I've just never heard of anyone having that reaction to Imuran, to the point where my GI never believed me when I brought it up before, either. It's been frustrating.
