I'm going to the doctors on Monday and he wants to put me on Imuran. I read a bunch of stuff about how it can cause cancer. What has me worried is that my father and his father had acute myeloid leukemia and died from it. My dad's sister had breast cancer and died from it. My mom had cancer in the uterus, and hysterectomy was a success, her mom had colon cancer and died from it. My sister has non hodgkins lymphoma and is still living, and another sister has breast cancer and is going through the process of getting a mastectomy. My daughter had cancer of the cervix which was operated on successfully.

There's just too much cancer in my family that I think it will be unwise to take Imuran. I don't know if there are any other immuno-suppressants out there that don't have a risk of cancer. If you know of any let me know and I'll let my doctor know.
