I have pemphigus for more than 4 years i was also reluctant to take prednisone, but I have not option, and thank God for this medication I fell better today, blister free, I started with 60mg and now I am taking 15 every other and 150mg of imuran daily. I also make a list of food that irritate my mouth such as onion uncooked, strawberry, berry, apple, cheese (I use soya cheese), wine or any other licour (take wine without alcohol for special ocassions). I think live is too short, after all we do not know when is our time to leave this place and I realized if something is going to make me feel better I surely will go for it. Take care and good luck
