UC with pins and needles

Hi

I’ve been taking mesasalazine for 5 years since my diagnosis with ulcerative colitis. These days I suffer from chronic cold feet/ pins and needles and I am wondering if it might be a side effect of my medication.

Just wondering if anyone else has had this problem ? My vitamin and iron levels are fine.

I’ve been taking it for 25 years and not had those side effects or any side effects at all. Maybe get a thyroid check if you haven’t had one recently.
