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.
Maurice.
