I was diagnosed with Crohns 10/04 and doing quite well. I am also a 2 time cancer survivor. I started with Asacol, switched to Colazal with few side effects. I also take omeprazole, synthroid, probiotics, fish oil, calcium, multi-vitamin, psyllium husk and flax seed. I recently had blood work done and my potassium level was high (5.5). It was retested and was still high at 5.4 (normal is 3.5-5.2). All other tests were normal. I am wondering it the Colazal would make it high? I have read that anti-inflammatory medications could do this. Any thoughts?
