Question

[BLM]

I am newly diagnosed, and I have been on A LOT of meds....more than ever before. I am taking 4000mg of Pentasa daily, and 9mg of Entocort daily, 21 pills total!! Thats not including the pills for my insomnia, migraines or other pain. Anyway, Ive been on these pills for about 3 months now....is this too long? I feel terrible from the pills side effects, but my cd is not as active as it was a few months ago during hospitalization. Recently they did MRI and found lession on my liver, and said due to another med I was on and so that that was discontinued, waiting further MRI. So have I been on too much of these pills for too long??
Thanks Guys~

I think the Cd drugs you are on are more to induce remission than to sustain it. At least that is what they are used for around here. Hopefully you will be able to maintain remission without them once things get settled down.
