Yes, in my experience it is typical. I was on prednisone and it was not until I had weaned down that dosage that the cyclosporine was started. I even had to wait longer to decrease the prednisone and start the cyclosporine because I developed serum sickness. Also, the first type of cyclosporine I was on did not work. It was not until I went on brand name Neoral that my marrow started to respond well.

Best of luck to you both!
