The old girl looks pretty crook this morning (Thursday). Hope the pills kick in soon and give some relief.

Jenny is on day three of Prednisone and no obvious improvement . She's having trouble sleeping with both nostrils blocked and sleeping pills ineffective. On the positive side, we've been advised that the doctors think thr WG to be limited to the upper airway and that the ruptured bowel, seven weeks ago, a coincidence. She's a bit fed up with the whole WG business.

How much pred is she on Mike?
I think it's time that the docs got together to review her case - I don't think it can wait until Monday or Tuesday.
What has ENT said?
She might need to do a sinus rinse. When I first got sick, I had to do sinus rinses (gross though they may be) every couple of hours......still the nose didn't clear.
Has the pain reduced at all, or still just the same?

It could take longer than 3 days for the pred to make her feel noticeably better. And when they add the immunosuppressive drug, that will take some time, too. Meanwhile, some sinus rinses should help, unless the nostrils are too blocked to do that, but it's worth a try. Otherwise, an ENT could get some of that obstruction out of there by means of a suction device.... I've had this done and it's not too bad. It's good to know that Jenny's WG is so far only in the upper respiratory tract. So she may be able to get by with some of the milder drugs. Best wishes to her!
