This is probably a question that many people have, but I just wanted to point out that Elle posted her question in Oct/06 so she probably isn't reading the answers any more.

Some people are hoping to hasten the attack by getting on steroids, and others avoid them like the plague. Whether we take them or not is very much a personal decision (not the doctor's), so I don't see there is a NEED, necessarily, to see a doc during an attack.

The longer one has had the disease, the less likely we are to be too terribly concerned with each change. If there is no desire for additional medications (or required testing), why waste both of our time?
