I need to get in to see my RD tomorrow.  My lupus has flared since
Wednesday.  I have pleurisy and pericarditis symptoms.  My left knee
feels like a bowling ball I have to drag along.

I broke down and popped 20mg of pred last night....wow, I can breathe
again.

I hate taking pred.  I can never just wean off...it takes months :(
My doc knows I would take it only if really needed and my heart was
hurting, as was my lungs.

Fortunately my RD is very good about getting me in ASAP.

Thanks Ya'll!

Janet,

It's 3:30 my time so I guess you are still at the docs.  Hope he can help
you some.  Let us know what he suggested.

I just made it home.

I have orders to get admitted, but my husband (a doc) and my doc are
talking about whether it is really necessary.  So I am waiting to get
a call back from one of them.

I have some lung inflammation and my heart hurts....hurts to breathe,
bad dry cough.  yadda yadda.

For now I am going to lay on recliner with the heater on myself.

While I'm all for staying home where life is more comfy, if you were on a
little oxygen it would let your lungs rest.  Maybe you can have that at home
with Hubbies help?

Glad that the pred worked so quickly. sigh  It always
does doesn't it. I am at my lowest dose in about 7
years. 4mg. I hate/love the stuff too.
Prayers on the way.
