Hello Jenny! I was just hospitalized over the weekend because my lungs had become so inflamed despite 7 months of Cytoxan infusions and Prednisone every day. They are now trying Rituxan infusions for me and huge amounts of Prednisone, and I do feel better. It is so frightening to be in a situation where your life feels threatened and it feels like it is all spiraling out of control. However, since you have been diagnosed, it is best to really listen to your body and if anything seems out of whack, get it checked out immediately. I learned the hard way to become really pro-active about my health. I hope all goes well with you! Hang in there!
