    Azathioprine and bright urine?

    Prednisone heart rate anxiety

    Hi there, first post here so apologies for it being a plea for help! Unfortunately my doctor is booked up for the next couple of days at least so I'm hoping for a bit of reassurance. I've been on Prednisone for suspected Crohn's since February starting on 40mg and tapering 5mg per week. Today's...
