Hey, guys.
So, I've been off all immuno drugs for about 2 years while we fought infections, had surgeries, etc. I have a temp loop ostomy at the moment, and I'm about to restart my Imuran. Aka Azathioprine. In the past when I was on this med, I was very underweight. Now I'm actually max density, lol. So I'm worried that this med may cause weight gain. Has this been the case for anyone else that was a normal weight when starting the drug? My crohn's is actually considered in remission right now due to my surgery last year, so I was able to put my weight back on and keep it. I just don't want to be overweight.
Thanks for any input!
