Hi Josephine!
How have you been feeling overall? Haven't heard from you in a while. Do you have an idea of what medications are being considered yet?
Hope you are at least feeling some relief at the moment Good luck to you with your testing! :hug:

It same flare which started in March which I took steriods for 10 weeks, which bring down inflammory. But mid July it came back with vengence. I suffer with constipation which always seem be in large int on bottom right. But movicon help with constipation, also made inflammory worse left side and middle of ribs. actual felt like a burning sensation. One point spend 2-3 hours in bathroom going loo and being vomiting in mornings and 1 hour at nights.
after second day of that I contact IBD Nurse. And she arrange the appoints and test for me.
I had blood test done, it remember it check about side effect. It one letter I reciever the nurse said new medication is 'thiopurine'.

I'm sorry your flare came back with a vengeance.
If you are doing thiopurine tests then it sounds like you may have Azathioprine or Imuran or 6-MP in your future treatment plan. I'm glad your docs are working with you though. It sounds like you are finally getting some appropriate tests and treatment to try and help tackle this. Hoping it all works out for you. You can of course find additional info and questions to ask your doctor in the Imuran/Aza/6-MP sub-forum:
