mercaptopurine for Crohn's Disease, Acute: This medication was very effective for all my Crohn's symptoms (including lack of energy, nausea, bleeding, etc..). It is like night vs. day being on this medication and being off of it.

mercaptopurine for Crohn's Disease, Acute: This medicine keeps me as if I didn't have Crohn's at all, it has been a life changer. I am just a little concerned about the birth issues. (I'm a male) I think I might get off the medicine temporarily if there's a chance to prevent any problems with my partners pregnancy.

mercaptopurine for Ulcerative Colitis, Maintenance: I tried it for two days and was so sick I could not function. Symptoms included severe dizziness, feeling of faintness, fatigue, unfocused, could not see straight, bloated upset stomach, diarrhea. Now they want me to try a lower dose and see if I get used to it.
