Coreeta Mays replied to the topic Use of Prednisone and Cellcept to Treat PF in the forum Diagnosis Information and General Questions 3 years, 10 months ago
I’ve been on Mycophenolate and prednisone for about a year now. My treatment was prescribed by my rheumatologist to treat my lupus. It’s believed that my PF is a result of my immune system attacking my lung . I started on 3000mg of Mycophenolate per day and 40mg of prednisone. I’m currently on 2000mg of Mycophenolate and 25mg of prednisone. I’m…[Read more]

Hello Marianne,
Thanks so much for the information. Although the thought of exercise and being more active is a little unnerving, I’m also very excited about seeing what type of progress I can make. Even a little improvement is a win for me. I’m in the US, I live in California. Last year I was referred to the University of California, Los Angeles…[Read more]

Thanks Steve, that definitely gives me some encouragement. I know I’m on the younger end of the spectrum but sometimes I sure don’t feel like it.

I’ve never been an avid exerciser and it has become an overwhelming thought after being diagnosed with PF. Prior to being diagnosed, I began to notice my inability to complete fairly low impact activities. Initially, I brushed it off as me just being lazy.

In my case, I had been with my company for 15 yrs when we received the news in February 2019 that our location here in California would be closing. I was given the option to accept a relocation package to our Ohio office but due to my medical condition, I declined the offer. Due to my PF being a result of an autoimmune disease, I was being treated…[Read more]
