Default weaning off immuran?

I would like to know if anybody out there has been told to wean off Immuran? I have been told to drop 1 of my 3 that I take daily by my neurologist. Prior to this, I had weaned myself off medrol 8 mg daily but had to resume because my sever excema for which I take it flared up terribly. I told my neurologist I had to do this and he said" You must need the medrol worse than the Immuran? I was taken aback and he walked out of the room. After being off 1 pill a day of the Immuran for one week, I noticed that I was getting shorter of breath with exertion. I called the neurology office to tell him but he was out of town and another neurologist said he didn't think I would see a difference that fast. However, I am to call my neurologist this next Monday.. What do any of you think?
