I haven't been on here in quite a while but it always comforting to know this site is here to look back on. I have been diagnosed with Wagner's now since 2011. I have really done quite well and went from problems with severe joint pain, sinuses, eye involvement, kidneys, and lung issues to only dealing with joint pain. While I am thrilled I have improved so much I can't help but wonder is there anything else that would bring down my inflammation levels. My Sed rate usually scores in the 60's which seeing when the whole process started I was off the scale is an improvement but I just can't seem to improve anymore in this area. I still take Imuran and Methotrexate. I have went off Predisone at this point as this started causing really severe side effects. I remained on a low 2.5 level for a long time but honestly noticed little change from being on 2.5 and being on nothing. Most of my pain really occurs in the later afternoons through the night time. I take my meds at night and usually wake up feeling quite well. Any thoughts of what else might bring down the level of inflammation?
