Guest guest Posted December 4, 2001 Report Share Posted December 4, 2001 Carol, All I can tell you that I was lucky that the meds all worked for me. I was put on mega doses of pred. then the Imuran was added. I was on 150mg. of Imuran and then went down to 100mg. I have been on this every since and am still having good luck. Sure I still have an occasional flare but they are not nearly as bad as they used to be. I only take pred when I flare and only if I have to. Pred has so many nasty side affects I really hate to take it! My blood pressure went up the last time I took it and it never went back to normal. Oh well high blood pressure is a whole lot easier to control than RP. I am only telling you what works for me. Unfortunately we are all different and some meds work on some and not others. I am just going to send good thoughts that the meds they decide are right for you are truly going to work! Lots of Love Glenda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
