My doctor recently prescribed me 50 mg daily azathioprine six weeks ago and now I have symptoms of IBS, no solid stool for a week, stomach discomfort. I’m thinking of lowering my dose to 25 MG daily, and possibly weaning myself off. Needless to say, it’s affecting my quality-of-life. I’ve read studies on medical marijuana and liver, Wondering if this would help. My doctor previously stated there’s no studies done on marijuana, but I’d like to have my quality-of-life back. Thoughts?

Have you tried taking Metamucil daily? Sounds counter-productive but will actually help to regulate stools. Check with your dr first and see if there is something else he can switch you too
Hmmmm will ask about it, good thinking-thanks!
Why AZA for pbc? I take it because I have aih as well as pbc.
Did you have blood test to make sure that you can take AZA safely
