Sounds like good news MissTheskinnyscot said:all done for 3mos. CT clear except for some spots on my spleen. He will check in three months with a pet scan. I had typed a long winded post but it kept coming up with error message. So I am going to see if this goes through
Sounds like good news Miss Skinny! Now, how about celebrating your birthday again out from under the clouds?!
Love and Hugs,

MethylprednisoneTheskinnyscot said:Thank you Friday's child, I
Thank you Friday's child, I think I read that methylpredisone is more potent than prednisone but don't quote me, I have been reading so much. I am so annoyed as this could be avoided if my doctor had just requested a pet scan instead, I know it is more radiation but I think I would take that trade off. I am ready to tell them to forget about it if they don't clarify things when I get there tomorrow. Thank you for letting me get this off my chest, I think it helps.
I have found Methylprednisone MUCH easier on my body than regular prednisone. Good luck to you!
