Guest guest Posted January 2, 2003 Report Share Posted January 2, 2003 Donna, welcome the best support group ever!! This is one special group. They have helped me more than I can ever explain. Please just keep asking all the questions you want and share your info with us. This is how we all learn. Tell us a bit about yourself. I live in Calif with my husband. I have 3 daughters and one grandaughter. I have been dx with RP since 1998. As of now, I am on pred and Plaquenil for the RP. I am trying to taper my pred and am now at 17mg. I was at 7mg in July, but had heart surgury and had to up the pred. So, I'm looking forward to getting back down. The RP seems to be in a sleeping mode as of now and it can just stay there for as long as it wants. LOL Please feel free to vent! We have lots of shoulders here and lot of ears to listen. Looking forward to getting to know you better. Sending lots of hugs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
