Trying to figure out what's going on

Two days ago, I went to the bathroom at least seven times. Yesterday, I had a bathroom accident. Today, I have gone around five times to the bathroom. I take Remicade, Pentasa, Colestid, Synthroid, Prevacid, Ditropan, L-Glutamine, Vitamin D, Ferrofood and Meriva. I haven't had Pentasa lately. Could the absence of one medicine make the Crohn's Disease act up? Thanks.

Certainly. The Pentasa may be helping control your symptoms and even if it didn't, starting or abruptly stopping medications can cause side effects too.

Why did you stop the Pentasa? Do you think it wasn't helping?

My doctor gives me free samples. I don't drive and it costs me money to take a cab. The annuities for my wife and I will be put in our account later today.
