Phone call from doctor & stool smell


Sun, March 17, 2019 2:16 AM

Hi. I've never posted here before. I have Crohns and have been on Mezavant XL for 5 years. I missed a call from the doctor a months ago and phoned back but no one could tell me why. I missed a call again this week and the receptionist said I needed a telephone consultation as my medication was not safe to take. Has anyone any idea why they might take me off it? I'm presuming it's in relation to bloods I had a few months ago. Secondly, my stool formation is okay at the moment but my stool smells acidic and foul like vomit. Any ideas? Thanks.
