Ada took her last Cytoxan and prednisone 3 days ago on Saturday. (She is still taking prilosec for a couple more weeks to make sure her stomach recovers from the prednisone.)
As of today she is testing negative for proteins. Hurray!! Here's hoping that Cytoxan did the trick. The Neph said to bring her back in 6 mo for a followup. Hopefully we won't see him before that.
We are suppose to check for proteins once a week. We will probably check more often than that - at least for a while. But even if the proteins are up, as long as it doesn't stay up for more than a week we don't need to worry.
We'll keep you posted.

Yeah!!! so happy to hear she's doing good.
I am so incredibly happy for you! WOW! I am dreading Calli's Nephrology appointment on 11/3, she has been on prednisone non-stop since Janulary 11th, 10 months and I worry that it's time for a new trick. I cam glad to see there are really good things that come from these medications! Congrats!

I'm another mom whose son has NS. I just blogged about what's working for us. He's only relapsed once in almost three years!
