I'm trying to pinpoint the dull cramp in my stomach that lasts all day. Feels like I've been punched or something. I'm on 40mg of pred and 3x lialda. I take lialda at night. I just started taking Prilosec a week ago.. Maybe it's that? Ugh I can't figure it out maybe y'all can help? Lialda didn't make me like this last year. So I'm thinking that's not it

Hi...I get that feeling when I'm flaring.

I wouldn't think it's the Lialda, more the pred.

Is the pain right in the centre of the solar plexus? or to the right or left?

How have your symptoms improved since on the meds?

You should call the doc and see if you have anything else going on.....I take it you complained about it and that's why you're on the Prilosec?

Does it go away after eating?

No, it never really goes away. I tried eating this morning (banana and yogurt) with my Pred. I will see how that goes. I don't have as much as a dull feeling so far, but the nausea is just horrible. And the fatigue.. I cant even explain how bad that is. I just want to crawl into a corner.

Maybe try something else other than Prilosec. Did your doc prescribe it or did you get it OTC?

You could ask your doc to prescribe an antispasmodic as well.

Did you have this feeling since you've been on pred?

I hate this feeling too, I have it all the time and am trying to get rid of it as well. It's like I have a constant urge to defecate but I can't! UGG</rant>
