Guest guest Posted September 2, 2004 Report Share Posted September 2, 2004 Helen, I hope the increase in MTX does the trick and try not to dwell on that little 3mg pred.Whats most important is stoping ole Arthur in his tracks before he has a chance to move in again.

Guest guest Posted September 7, 2004 Report Share Posted September 7, 2004 Helen. I am sorry to hear about the prednisone increase. I know that it will help Nick, even though it's no good. Hopefully he will only have to have the increase for a short time and then he can go back to a quick taper again. How is he feeling?? Alia and Caroline, age 2, poly and uveitis Update on ..
