Does Delzicol Cause Rashes On The Legs?

Absolutely, yes. Bottom line...i have had ulcerative colitis for years...was on asacol...now on delzicol...you know same family, etc. I have a rash on my legs and chest...could that be from delzicol and running in the sun??? Plus my crit is elevated...you know these meds cause kidney damage. I am going to UVA next week to see a new gi doc since my kidneys are getting bad. I just need your advice. My gi doc is very conservative but well qualified, I feel. I am a social worker who worker in the ICUs for 38 years, by the way. Thank you, Dr. Rynee. susan early
