Do you feel that the immune suppression will leave you sick all the time? I've taken TNF inhibitors for 13 years. I don't get colds more often than I did before (1-2/year). I haven't had a flu in all that time. The only indication of a weakened immune system was a case of shingles more than 10 years ago that lasted 2 weeks. Definitely worth it for me, but I suppose things may be different if you live in a country with epidemic levels of tuberculosis, yellow fever etc.
If you like to travel then it may prevent you from taking live vaccines that are necessary for visiting certain countries. However, you can usually still get a live vaccine if you stop taking the biologic for a couple months (on the advice of your doctor of course).
If biologics are too expensive, there's methotrexate. I believe there is a bit higher chance of infection and potential for liver damage is higher. However, many people take that for many years without complications as well. Liver issues can be caught before they become a serious problem with regular testing.

Sure, but even the fanciest mosfets can break. How are those hazards mitigated in the design?

I don't have eyebrows, nor have I ever groomed anything, but I DO have a new distilling technique.
thanks for the answer!
