Hi Hopeful....I have had swollen cartilage, both ears purple/red, very painful
. It was also very noticeable since I had short hair. I believe they upped my pred, don't remember how much.
It was a flare, but not from flu shot. Haven't had one of those in many years.
Glad that you are receiving some extra special treatment from hubby! Never can get too much of that!!
