9 year veteran of Wegener's

As a point of inspiration to newer sufferers of the disease, I wanted to indicate that this month marks the 9 year anniversary of being diagnosed with the disease. I'm doing well and haven't had many problems with the treatment.

Wow, that's great! I wish everyone could be so fortunate, but your experience will give hope to many.

Hi lawstudent,

As a compoarative new comer to this wonderful ailment it is good to hear news like yours. Thanks for the encouragement.

Hi lawstudent, glad you are doing great! Are you medication free?

Hi Elephant. Unfortunately, I had a flare up about a little over a year ago. Right now, I'm only taking 150 mg (3 pills) of Imuran and my doctor says it'll stay that way for a while (about a year). I'm anticipating by late 2013/early 2014 that the medicine will come off. But I'm feeling great now and my last set of lab results taken almost two weeks ago is thumbs up for me.

Hope you can get off it. Glad you doing well with it!
