What symptoms are the worst for you with Behçet's? What helps?

Posted by aim4nopain @aim4nopain, 1 day ago

I have so far been diagnosed with Becehts disease which is a rare autoimmune disorder that my doctors are having a hard time finding a medication to relieve severe symptoms. I have tried nearly every medication on the market I am now taking Acterma injections however I still have symptoms. I wondering what are the worst symptoms you suffer from if you have been diagnosed with bechets and what medication has helped you the most?

Hi,
The most difficult symptoms are joint pain, and recurrent pericarditis.
The only medication that seems to work for me is Prednisolone.
