One more IV cytox treatment or not

[Red]

My Rhumy says 1 more treatment cytox ,mayo dr says no more both say start Imuran ,maintenance
what to do hmmmm :unsure: what do you think?

[pberggren1]

i would trust the mayo doc first for sure. I would not want to take anymore ctx unless absolutely necessary. I am on Imuran now and seem to be tolerating it well.

[Sangye]

I'd go with the Mayo doc's suggestion.

ditto to Sangye post, I moved onto Imuran and seem to be doing ok .

It would depend on how well the control of your Wegs symptoms seemed to be. If it appears to have been knocked on the head, then get off the ctx and just monitor closely. You can always start it up again if required and if caught early you won't need much to bring things back into line.

It is my eye i have eyerightis and thinning of the scolalis is stable with drops ect my blood work has been good for june,july,august so that is why my rhumy added more treatments the
mayo dr. says you have had 3 treatments after eye flair is it really working . I wonder if it could be the cytox or the pred that has caused my eye issues?.
