Flareup update
Jan. 26th, 2026 11:21 pmThe FOP "fun" continues... the prednisone helped a little but there's still lump and swelling and I can still only open my mouth so far.
Meet with a FOP specialist today via telemedicine (yay) and he suggested a second, longer course (though much of the "longer" is taper) because submandibular flares can be stubborn (and risky given the potential to affect breathing and swallowing). So ... more prednisone it is, sigh.
