Hi Harry,

My brother has been fighting this for almost 2 years now. At first he had relapses every month or so for 4 staright months, until he was put on PE for 3 times a week tappering of to 1 a month and now has transitioned to IVIG once every month. Similar to yourself he was on predisone and Imuran. The prednisone is finished and is slowly being tapered of Imuran. His doctor has advised him to keep a close eye on how he is feeling. The positive is that if a relapse is to occur they know what works for him. As everyone is different it is important to advise your doctor as soon as something feels like a relapse. The quicker they start effective treatment the better it is.

Keep your head up,

Larry
