I'm having my second bout of AIHA within a year. It is not treatment related, it is pre treatment. Treatment is 60mg of Prednisolone for 6 weeks and if successful tapering down 5mg every two weeks to zero.
Has anyone else experienced repeated bouts of AIHA?

Hi.... In September of 2018 I was rushed to the hospital with A.I.H.A. & had to have 4 transfusions with "packed" blood. After 5 days I was allowed to return home and was put on 60mg of prednisone which was reduced every 2 weeks. I stayed in remission for about 7 months at which time it returned. At that point I was given Rituxan infusion for 4 consecutive weeks. On October 2nd,2019 my doctor started me on Ibrutinib and so far so good.
