Has anyone experienced this on Pentasa and Entocort

[abwhite0410]

Looking for a little comfort here in knowing I am not the only one. Newly diagnosed with Crohns as of May and since I've been on Pentasa 4000 mg since and was on Entocort 9 mg for 2-3 months with no issues on either meds. After about 2-3 months on the Entocort I was doing well so they stopped it. About 2 weeks ago I had to start back on the Entocort 9 mg. Well since this past Friday I have been experiencing this insane muscle pain/soreness mostly in my arms. It feels like I have been lifting weights (which I do NOT do haha) or doing excessive arm exercises. Called my GI yesterday and they told me to stop all medications immediately. Has anyone else had this happen?? Please share if you have. :sign0085:

I would ask for a second opinion. It seems to be that you could cause invisible damage to your intestines if you stop all medicines.
