Just got a call from the hospital 're bloods taken yesterday. My liver enzymes have taken another significant jump so to remain off Azathioprine. Waiting a further call as rheumatologist is going to try fit me in tomorrow before his weeks annual leave.

I had the same problem when on azathioprine. My rheumy switched me to MMF and my liver enzymes went back to normal. I hope you sort this out soon.
