Thinking I was surely in remission, I was planning to write and post my diary for this cycle over the weekend.
I had gone 13 days with nothing more than kip2-3 shadows...sleeping throught the night, etc. I figured the Prednisone (40mg/day and taper....finish tomorrow on 3rd day of 5mg) had done its job and the cycle was over.
Surprise, surprise. It is 3:30 am and I've been up for 2 hours. I woke with kip 3 and it climbed to 5-6. Pushups, cold shower, pacing, sunglasses brought it back down and it is gone now.
How discouraging! My normal events always go to 10 and this one was far short of that. But, I recall that in previous cycles, remission was remission...no revisiting.
