    Good luck Beatrice, I really do hope all goes well. Can I ask, how long has it taken for you to get to this level. Christina

    Woopee!  Always great to hear a good news story.  Fingers crossed for you that you stay well, but please continue to go slowly slowly, remembering that each reduction in dose at this level is a higher percentage than the one before.  Looking forward to hearing more good news from you.

    That's fantastic!!  Love to hear the success stories.  Could you give us envious few (or should I say many) a bit of your history.

    Hugs,  Diana
