newly diagnosed and having problems with medication - please advise!
hey, i was diagnosed with crohn's in april but think i have lived with it for a number of years - coping ok!
I have been prescribed Pentasa (8 a day), Budesonide, (was 3, now 2 a day) and Ferrous Sulphate, (2 a day). It started off ok, but I am now experiencing horrendous side effects and i'm unsure whether this is normal/what to do.
On a day to day basis I am exhausted and it's getting worse, I am also suffering headaches, nausea, back and neck ache, pain when I urinate ans walk long distances, (a bladder infection has been ruled out), and worst of all my stomach is significantly worse! I'm in pain every day and it is extremley tender to touch!
has anyone else suffered anything similar and what did you do? please advise, i feel horrendous!
