13th January 2013

So far so good. Dan is now down to 3 steroids a day. This is brilliant as he has been on 4 (20mg) since last June.
The nausea and vomiting has subsided and he seems to be tolerating the Imuran now. His chest has cleared and apart from continuing stabbing chest pains and occasional sharp head pain he is doing well. He also still complains of feeling itchy all over since he dropped the steroids but not enough to be a huge problem.
I am hoping this is all due to the Imuran.
I may sound a little pessimistic but I need to know he will get through the pollen season without everything flaring up again. This time last year he was off steroids completely until pollen and Mozzie bites so I know how the seasons can make a big difference.
Overall, something seems to be working. Long may it continue.
