The steroid taper finally took its toll yesterday, and I had a minor resurgence of my GVHD, which culminated in a total body rash and some other fun. Although saddened by the minor setback, for now the plan is to remain at the level of steroids I'm taking and hope that everything stays under control. The worst case scenario will be to resume the full dose of the steroids and try the taper at a later date.

As much as I hated to agree with the doctor and swallow the pill, I am hoping for a break in the overall malaise. I have been having a very rough few days.
