Muscle aches while on budesonide?

[tayandky]

Lately I have had aching pain in my shoulders. I have been stretching my arms when I get the pain but it doesn't help. sometimes its in my upper back and shoulder area. Anyone have the same issue?

Never had that issue while on Entocort. Wonder if it could be hydration related or a number of any other things. You still get blood work done to make sure your vitamin levels are within the norm since you're on supplements?

I have back pain in general and have found I have arthritis all throughout my joints (by x-ray) but I think its more than just arthritis that's causing my back pain since I also have numbness between my shoulder blades. I'm currently having testing done by a neurologist. Sometimes our other issues aren't Crohn's or medication related. If it continues I'd speak with both your GI and GP about it.

I was on it for about a year - no muscle pains or aches from it, only jittery and didn't sleep well. However, I have all kinds of aches and pains, have for years. We just get weird stuff, and a lot of the time, nobody knows what it is.
