Hey Laura,
I too am so sorry for what you have been going through. Keep the faith.
As to the cataracts - they can be caused by steroids (Prednisone). My husband has the beginnings of subcapsular cataracts which are cataracts at the back of the lens as opposed to the front. He was given steroids before every transfusion he received for 2 years and is now on 20mg. per day of Prednisone for ulcerative colitis. In my research of cataracts I found that they can be caused by steroids.
Best wishes,
Sally
