I was diagnosed with UC in 2001 and have been taking Azathioprine ever since.

I feel that 13 years is a long time to be taking Aza and am thinking very seriously about withdrawing from the drug. My doctor tells me that if I do I will be playing with fire. The drug has given me a better quality of life while on it but as I become older (I'm 56) I'm concerned that I'll develop bone marrow or skin cancer. It's quite frightening to think about it but it's a toss up between my UC issues returning or staying on Aza. Has anyone actually tried this after long term use of Aza?
