My mom was on prednisone for many, many years. Her doctor basically felt the same way. Felt that she would die if not on it. I swear, she had multiple lives.  She was one of the strongest people I know. There were lots of times that she came very close to death. And of course, she eventually lost her battle with all the issues that Lupus brought forth to her. As far as whether or not the prednisone helped her live longer? I'm not sure. I do know that they tried taking her off a few times. And she actually was better with it, than without. Bella- I'm surprised you were turned down with having a Lups diagnosis. Just hang in there though. You were smart to get an attorney. I'm sure your final outcome will be in your favor. It just takes time. Unfortunately.
