Judy,

Boy do I understand about the depression!! Anytime I get above 15 mg of prednisone I am a real mess!! Plus your thyroid being so out of whack must make it pretty unbearable. I am SO glad to see that you are going to see a psych...even if he/she is an intern :) The trick is to see one that deal with MEDICAL INDUCED depression...it is treated differently!! I found that when I learned techniques to view my illness and meds differently I felt better. I also got really into spirituality (not religion per se). I read a fabulous book by Harold Kushner called "When Bad Things Happen to Good People", and I am now reading his follow up called "Who Needs G-d" (he spells it out LOL). I found it very helpful to see where I fit in to everything with my illness/depression/meds. Please let me know how you are doing!!!

Love/hugs/prayers!!

Ivy

PS...Heide, I emailed you privately about the Imuran!
