Stopped Using Lialda, Stomach Cramping, Swollen And Burning, Fullness Feeling Through Chest, Tiredness. Treatment?

I have gained about 25 lbs since starting Lialda about a year ago. Recently,I have been having stomach cramping / burning and my stomach is swollen. I feel fullness all the way up through my chest. I've recently had a very bad rash on my leg that an rx cream was able to heal but I've noticed in the last couple of weeks that I get a stomach rash that goes away by itself. I am also very tired constantly. Are these symptoms all referred to taking Lialda?

Hi, you are taking lialda since one year, and so far there is no problem. Recently you had burning, cramps, fullness, in the stomach, and rash, and tired ness.
As you describe it appears to be the infection, ulcer, or hepatitis. So i advise you to consult a gastroenterologist for diagnosis and treatment.
Thank you.
