Hey guys..


I'm having horrible pains where my liver would be..and was having chest pains earlier and have horrible headache. Not really sure if I should go to an urgent care or just wait it out. I've gone plenty of times for the heart pains and nothing comes of it, just prednisone related stuff...but idk.


I am going off imuran soon and onto cyto something? I really wish I could get one that worked...

Still on 50 of pred a day 250 imuran ivig every month 5 days.


Hope your all doing well

I think i may be having an adrenal crisis...i started going down on my prednisone..
Not sure what to do

Tyson, If you feel like you are having an adrenal crisis, the ONLY thing to do is dial 911. Sure, you could call your neuro or take more Pred but what if you are having one and it is too late for wait and see measures?

It doesn't matter if you've had pain before. New pain should always prompt someone to go to the ER. It could be anything from a bleed to kidney stones to infection or a gall bladder stone blocking the bile duct. Just go in.

I hope you'll be ok.

yep me thinks you should go and get it checked out, better to be safe a hundred times than sorry once, I'm sure the Drs would agree.

I just want to add my voice here: get it checked out immediately. When you're on drugs like Imuran and Prednisone, you have to consider the possibility that one of them is having dangerous effects on you. I hope you're OK--let us know when you get a chance.
