Hi Mark,
Iīm confused about your Pred dosage: you write that you are on 60 mg per day but in an other thread, didnīt you say you weigh about 100 kg? That should make 60/100=0.6 mg/kg/d...?
BTW, your symtoms are almost identical to those I had when MG started in 2007. I was treated with 1 mg/d/kg for several months and slowly tapered during 18 months to 5 mg/d for an almost normal life till I relapsed due to a trial to 4 mg/d combined with a pneumo shot which sent me 2 years back. I repeated the whole process with less success as Iīm now on 7.5 mg/d and one PLEX every 7 or 8 weeks.
I was also treated with Cellcept for several years without effect, I coudnīt take Imuran as I am also on allopurinol.

No. My dose has been 60 mg per day, or 1.8mg/kg/day since November 15th. It feels longer. I will see my neuro on Monday the 3rd. I still have 12-days worth of doses. I wonder if my neuro will have me have me finish the whole prescription.

Hello Mark,
Sorry for this but you wrote “To date I weigh (and dropping) 235 pounds or 106 kilogram...“ and since you take 60 mg per day, you are on 60/106 or about 0.6 mg/kg/day and not 106/60 or 1.8 mg/kg/d...
Maurice.

Maurice,

Thank you for finding my mistake. It is a huge difference. I though you needed to divide the weight by the dose. And since I got the number I expected, something between 1.2 and 2.0 mg/kg/day, I stopped there.

I found a great calculator at http://www.medcalc.com/pedidose.html

I won't need to rely on my native intelligence the next time, good thing too.

Take care,

-Mark-
