Default Strengthening the immune system can make things worse?

It seems that most PN is autoimmune, so wouldn't doing things to boost the immune system make things worse? Like taking lots of vitamin C and other supplements. Most of the treatments for PN are immunosuppressants such as corticosteroids. I recently added green tea extract to my daily regimen and my symptoms flared, not sure if it was just a coincidence.
