Long term Steroids.

[Chanelady]

Many thanks for all your replies to my post.As I stated before, I am due to see my new Rheumatoid Consultant next week, so I'm very hopeful that she will help me on my journey and give me a suitable Rheumy drug that will suit me.

I can then hopefully, slowly come off the Predisolone.
