I can only say as a newby to this condition too, do not stop the meds! I did after I first went into remission (july) and am in a bad flare up already (treated with steroids and antispasmodics for the cramps). I have been advised each flare up and feel worst than the last so you don't want to go down that route.
As for costs im afraid I am from the UK so can't help. I have been an asacol (which is the go-to-med out here) supp. and starting the oral during this flare and its always been fine for me.
Its really sweet you are on here for your wife! You will fine the info on here really helps.
Good luck!
