I have been on Remicade for quite a while now and started Imuran on the 8th Almost immediately, when I take Imuran nearly an exact hour later I get the worst uspet stomach I've ever had - not common with my Crohn's, therefore not used to this issue. Is there anything I can do to alleviate/lessen this?

The combo of Remicade and Imuran and still tapering off of Prednisone (because of an awful flare-up) really seem to be doing the trick. I have not felt this 'normal' (knock on wood) in over 2.5 years. So I don't want to stop taking Imuran but I can't do this every night, and I work at night - this is no fun!!!!
 
When you say upset stomach, do you get nauseous? Or is it only pain? What happens specifically?

What dose are you on and did they do any TPMT testing to help determine an optimal dose for you?
