I Have Crohns And Take Cimzia, It Hasn't Been Working

I have crohns and take cimzia, it hasn't been working and they were going to switch me over to Humira. During the pre testing I had some "markers" show up in a blood test for tuberculosis. They are putting me on isoniazid for 9 months with monthly blood tests prescribed. As I'm reading it appears that I shouldn't be taking the cimzia for the crohns or my hydrocodone as it contains ibuprofen. I will reach out to my Gastro and Pulmonologist but I think I should hold off on starting the Isoniazid. Thoughts?
