I have suffered for many years with stomach pain and chronic diarrhea. I also have scalp psoriasis which flares when my stomach gets really bad and the combo makes me miserable. I am in my fifties and have a very active life with family and full time teaching in Higher Ed, but the stomach troubles create terrible stress and fatigue. I was put on budesomide a couple of months ago and have relief from diarrhea but stomach pain has increased and this week I have started having light rectal bleeding along with rectal pain. Anyone else had these issues with this medication?
