Answer Hello!
We here in the US have a new drug that is called Remicade. You should ask your doctor about this. It is good that he is taking you off the steroids as they do a lot of damage. Your knee hurting shows that the steroid has cause arthritis. There is also a drug I take called Imuran. No side effects so far and I have been on it for 4 years. Wish I could help you more.
