Went to see Dr. Schecter today.

I feel mentally stronger than before. Having issues with my legs though.

As usual, some days are just better than others. Nancy has reduced the Prednisone from 60mg to 50mg (per day). It’s still high dose, but at least we are moving in the right direction of reducing the dosage.

Doctors Impression:
#1: CIDP appears to be responding to IVIg. She is definitely stronger than July 05th, it is too early for the high dose Prednisone to have kicked in.
#2: Abnormal EKG, for stress test in early August.
#3: One month edematous RUE. #4: Exacerbation of DM and HTN from steroids.
