Hi Everyone, I went to my GP back in November thinking I had either an ear or sinus infection, thankfully she was on the ball and after taking something like 10 vials of blood she sent me home with 60mg perisdione to start immediately with a suggested diagnosis of GCA.

I have recently started treatment for recurring cancer.Rubrac a didn't work for me and I have already had Carbo/Taxol and Carbo/Caelyx.
