Surgery or stay with Humira & Imuran?

[GOUK88]

I have decided to drop Humira after being on both Humira and Imuran for over 6 years. It's not the QoL, but the thought and emotional toll of being on both of these meds. for so long. I have yet to find someone on these two types of meds. for this long. Anyone out there who has taken these two for this long? Am I wrong to consider surgery instead of gambling with the dangers of prolonged use?

Well, i'm on Humira right now and might have to go on Imuran, since my pentasa/Humira plan isn't currently working. Honestly, I would avoid surgery at all costs. Like medications, it sometimes only provides temporary relief. But, you know your body best, and just make sure your GI isn't pushing surgery on you as a last option. Are you having flare ups again? Are the meds not working?
