Thanks for your reply
Hi Grady
You won't have to stop your azathrioprine. But you'll better ask your Rheumy. I wish you all the best with your operation!

I remained on azathioprine and prednisolone when I had a foot operation last year. I did check specifically with all the team involved including the anaesthetist. The only caveat was - bring your own medications with you for the short stay in hospital.
Thanks for that info,i was a bit concerned about leaving off the two dmards i,m on.I,m not greatwhen i take them.
