    Thanks for sharing. My maintenance drug is sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim (bactrim) and tapering prednisone 1mg per month. In drug induced remission after 25 months of oral CTX.

    Awesome share!

    I sent this link to my Rheumy and he sent back a note thanking me for sending it. We also talked about it at my last visit and related it to my recent flare-up.

    So, thanks Pete for sharing this!!!!
