I went to see my GI today, and got some really good news: as of today, I have been in remission now for 4 years.
FOUR YEARS.
In celebration, he took me off the Imuran, which was the one drug (it's an immunosuppressive) that I was worried about taking while pregnant. In addition, if I don't have any problems by my next appointment (in 3 months), he's going to start tapering my Pentasa, and he may even get rid of it completely.
Then all I'd be on is the Remicade, once every 8 weeks, and the Prilosec once a day.
Yippee!!!
