Thanks all for the perspectives! I'm sitting here in pain on the toilet at 5 am while still on 20 mg pred, so it doesn't even seem to be working as well this time.

I was taking a bunch of medicines at once, even prednisone and nothing was working. The doctors said I could try Biologics but I was done at that point, I was not going to try biologics only to have it fail down the road possibly. I told the doctors I was not going to take anything else, I wanted the surgery!!!! Almost 7 years with my pouch and I am very happy
