    Imuran skin rashes and bruising

    Did you get a diagnosis? I developed rashes on my thighs with azathioprine - 2 years after stopping it I still have them - yet to get an explanation - they're so worried that there's a blame waiting to be apportioned I suppose.

    Exhausted on azathioprine, anyone else?

    I was the same - could barely lift my legs to walk and had a lot of rashes (still do - they seem to be permanent damage) - took myself off it as no-one would listen - saw a consultant eventually who said it had damaged my liver and I'd made a good call - the moral being listen to your body

    Azathioprine Experiences

    Hi First post - and newby to Crohn's. I've had a less than ideal start that's a long story involving not being seen after my colonoscopy for almost 7 weeks and just being in so much pain and unable to get any help from my local hospital as they never answered calls. Anyway, diagnosed now and...
