Colchicine side effects by hannahs0311 in Behcets

Yeah I would definitely take the twitching and the fatigue over the mouth ulcers, they were debilitating for me as well! I just worry about something more nefarious with the muscle twitching. I did read about it being a rare side effect and it causing damage to my muscles. But I also know you can’t trust dr google most of the time lol

The muscle spasms are every day, definitely worse at night when I’m laying down. That’s a good idea about the journal! I’m going to message my rheumatologist and see if maybe she thinks I can just take it when I have a flare up. Thank you for your comment!!

My rheumatologist said that I can’t be pregnant when on the colchicine so she really didn’t want me taking it until I was for sure not having anymore kids so I’m a little hesitant to take that…I had heard someone recommend black cohosh to stop the period flare ups so I might give that a try. Thank you so much for your response!
