Hey guys
Just reaching out today cause I'm feeling lousy and because this is all still new to me and scary.
I've been on Entocort (actually gen. budesonide) since October - did two months at 9mg then a slow taper of 6mg for a month then 3 mg and now I'm off completely as of this week.
All of a sudden my stomach hurts like hell and now I have nausea and heartburn too. ?
I'm hoping maybe it's just the weaning off and things will settle down? Just a few weeks ago when I was down to 3mg. Budesonide I felt great! My head felt WAY better being on lower doses of steroids and my stomach seemed fine. But now...ugh.
Anyone have any helpful/hopeful experience with this or words of wisdom? I'm feeling awfully discouraged.
Thanks
