I personally haven't heard anything about Imuran, but I do know that it does take time for the thymectomy to take effect. I was told by my neuro and GP to expect anywhere from 6 mos-1 year....so hang in there! Tell Dallas to hang in there, too! I was also told that until I was officially "in remission" that there would be good/bad days/weeks, but not to give in to this disease and DO NOT GIVE UP HOPE! I hope someone who actually knows about that drug can give you some good advice. In the meantime, hang in there!

The docs just started him on Imuran 2 days ago...what do you all think about it? They say for kids, it is much better than the long-term side effects of the Prednisone.
Thanks for helping, Heidi  |
