I am doing well with eliminating some of my medicine that I have been on for years. By the end of September I hope to be off of the prednisone. We have reduced my sulindac to 1 1/2 200 mg tablets per day. The Rheumatologist did increase my Remicade infusions to 600 mlg every 5 weeks because it has started running out before time for the next infusion.
Friday and Saturday of last week and Monday of this week I have walked a mile each day. This is very unusual for me. Except for the muscles being tired and me too, I am beginning to feel better. My PT assures me that if I continue that I will be able to loose 30 pounds by Spring. Usually I stop walking after the first day but I'm determined to keep it up this time. The PT told me I was over the worst today; keep it up and be consistent.
I'll keep you posted.
