Treatments that Don't Affect Immunity

I've been on Stelera the last few years, and while it's been working reasonably well in treating my Chron's symptoms, I've become a bit weary about the whole reduced-immune-system part of it.

I've become a hermit, especially in the winter months, not entering public spaces, no movies, no concerts, no parties. This year I went to only one family gathering for Christmas and have been sick with a bad cold for a solid month now.

Is anyone being treated successfully for UC or Crohn's with a treatment that doesn't take a hit on your immune system?
