6MP to Humira

[Tanachild]

So, I'm on 75MG 6MP and my hair is falling out. People are starting to notice that my hair is incredibly thin and when they ask why, I don't like to tell them "it's the meds" because then they say, "I'm sorry," and I really don't like it when people tell me that. I don't want anyone feeling sorry for me nor do I want to go bald.

Anyway, back to the point. My GI talked about taking me off the 6MP if it's really bothering me and switch to Humira. What do you guys think I should do?

If you are in remission on the 6MP it's a pretty difficult thing to change meds, and potentially not get on with the new one.

I'd switch, I rather like my hair, and I'm doing very well on Humira already so rather biased.
