That's good news.

Is part of the working hypothesis that the way the immune system itself is responding is part of the problem (extreme inflammation, etc) and hense the steroid/chemo appraoch in conjunction with antibiotics and with treating the anemis which severe infection causes?

(BTW, has anyone ever tried actual chemo for Aleutians Disease (ADV)? I have a vague niggling in my head that someone did but I could be completely wrong.)
