    Default Decreasing pred again!

    For the last month or so (probably 5 weeks), I've been alternating 5 and 2.5 mg of pred. Doc wants me to go down to 2.5 mg daily, then in a month, alternate 2.5 mg and 0, then in another month, go to 0.

    (Where's the "fingers crossed" smiley?)

    So far, no problems with alternating 5 and 2.5. Before the rtx, every time I'd try to go below 5, the WG would flare. Badly. So it's seems like before the rtx it was only the pred keeping it under control, and the mtx has done very little. Anyway, things are looking better now. And I still need that "fingers crossed" smiley!

    Here's another "fingers crossed" smiley.

    Hope everything goes smoothly.
