Hi,
I've been having really bad nausea for about a week, especially an hour after I eat or drink anything (other than water). I spoke to a doctor last night and he thinks it could be my Imuran. I went up from 200 to 250mg a day a month ago and I have increased my Humira from once every two weeks to once a week. The doc told me to stop taking the Imuran and that if that was the problem, I should start feeling better in 24 hours. So I didn't take it last night or today, and I still feel just as sick. It's been like 18 hours so far. I'm wondering if anyone has had bad nausea from Imuran and if so, how long it took them to feel normal after stopping to take it. Also, did you get sick an hour after eating or drinking anything? That is the time frame for me which is much less than it takes for food to get to where my Crohn's problems are (terminal ileum). I'm seeing a doctor tomorrow afternoon but would love to hear other people's related experiences.
I feel like the nausea I'm having now feels different from the nausea caused by Crohn's flareup. It's hard to describe.
I went up from 200 to 250 on the Imuran as my body was barely absorbing it owing to my inflammation. I'm wondering if it is possible that the increased Humira lowered my inflammation, which meant I better absorbed Imuran at the same time as my dosage was increased.
