Do you get symptoms in the morning

Do you still get symptoms in the morning when you take entocort.
Or do your symptoms go away fully for the time your on entocort

After 2 or 3 weeks on Entocort my symptoms were about 98% gone. There was still some random faint pain occasionally, but I don't recall that it happened at any special time of the day.
 
yeah thanks for that did you have bleeding or mucus by any chance and also how were the bowel motions
 
On Entocort I seem to have about a 60-75% reduction in symptoms (my symptoms are mostly pain since the inflammation is always in my small intestine). It worked well for about two years, then I landed in the hospital again. I tried 6MP but developed pancreatitis from it, and am now giving it one more chance. The big problem right now is that it seems to be giving me more and worse migraines, and I have enough without anything increasing them.

I had bleeding prior to the Entocort. It was severe anemia that led to my diagnosis in the first place. But I do not recall any particular bleeding or mucus while taking Entocort.
