• October 2013 - October 2017: HLA-B27 positive gene, Chronic Uveitis flare ups where I was unable to read anything on the eye chart, Medications Included Prednisone high does,  Prednisolone acetate (Prednisolone Acetate Ophthalmic) eye drops daily, Trial on Azathioprine (Imuran) which caused Acute Pancreatitis, infusions Prednisone (Methylprednisolone), Humira injections, Mycophenolic acid (CellCept), &  Kenalog injection directly into my eye. I had to sign a medical waiver. (8 years no issues as of current)
