Hi. Has anyone any idea of whether I am ok to use a sauna? I have anca-negative vasculitis which affects my skin and nerves. I've completed six cycles of cyclophosphamide and have been on 15mg methotrexate since late December. I'm currently down to 13mg prednisolone and tapering. I used to really like saunas but am a little worried that they'll make me feel poorly and I have the opportunity to use one tomorrow :-) Has anyone any experience of this? Thanks.
