    Have you tried a higher dosage of the Imuran? I had to increase my dosage from 150 to 200 since I flared at the the 150 mg dosage. At 200 mg it seemed to get control of my symptoms and Wegs but then I had to cut back to 175 mg since my liver enzymes got too high. I also had to cut back on a cholesterol drug that was also metabolized by the liver.

    My pred was tapered to 5 mg and has remained at that level for many months. My lab work has been good and symptoms seem controlled at this dosage so I have been considered in a drug induced remission for over a year now despite several minor surgeries. Hope they find something that helps you feel better!

    Aloha.
