Default Hey Erin

No, I' m not on Imuran but on Cellcept (1.5 g/d)…
My neurologist nephew told me he usually gets good results with Imuran.
I' m doing rather fine, just that leg weakness which limits my walking autonomy, specially when stairs have to be climbed…but compared to some others, I' m privileged!
I still take 15 mg/d Pred, I have some blood and bone density tests scheduled for next week with an appointment with my neuro, I hope she will continue the steroid taper, maybe 13 mg next month?
I have also planned for February an eye surgery (cataract, steroid side effect…) and I see my ophtalmo to-morrow to set the details.
I' m glad to read that plasma exchange works for you but it is difficult for me to understand the needle phobia some of you have, but once again, I must be privileged as I have always heard "oh you have large veins, that will be easy…"
Maurice.
