Should I go for splenectomy?
I started Prednisone (corticosteroid) and after no response, I started
Imuran
(immunosuppressants). My platelet count is still less than 10,000.

Sitting Pain
My doctor just put me on
Imuran
, which helps some, but not enough. My glutes hurt constantly, and hamstrings hurt a great deal after sitting for just 15 minutes. I was a healthy, physically strong person four years ago. This thing seemed to come out of the blue, not long after a hysterectomy.

Intermittent fasting for crohns?
Currently on methotrexate injections once a week after little success with mercaptopurine tablets daily and intolerant to
imuran
. Looking at the fasting to try and manage pain mainly but also to rest the gut between 2000hrs-12 midday and see if my symptoms improve. Anyone out there tried this ?

Just feel awful
I have been on
imuran
50mg for approx 3 weeks now. I was taken off of methotrexate as it had stopped working for me. I am very concerned as every time my meds stop working I usually have extreme fatigue pain and shortness of breath.

Nausea with Azathioprine
Hi all, I was diagnosed with GPA last December and after being on Prednisolone and Cyclophosphomide for 4 months the Steroids are greatly reduced and I have moved onto Azathioprine (
Imuran
) I have been on it 5 weeks and all is ok apart from the fact that I am struggling with Nausea.

Managing joint pains
I usually take
imuran
daily for the last 10 years and was doing well on it. This has come on out of the blue. Iam currently waiting to see my rheumatologist no appointment yet. In the meantime the gp wouldn't give me steroids until I see the consultant.

Bronchiectasis and azathioprine info please
Will start azathioprine (
imuran
) if blood test comes back ok as it's not as powerful as first combination. Looking for experience of azathioprine and any recommendations dealing with bronchiectasis, finding the deep coughing hard going.
