Are there any new or advanced medications available to cure or help manage a rare disease that causes severe cartilage swelling (relapsing polychondritis) and a narrowed windpipe (tracheal stenosis) requiring a breathing tube, for a patient who has also lost vision in one eye and is currently taking Wysolone, Pentop, Fefol, Folitrax, Folivite, Calcipure XT, Crocin, and Pred Forte?

Since you are already taking prednisolone (Wysolone) and methotrexate (Folitrax), your doctor might consider advanced biologic therapies. These include TNF inhibitors (like adalimumab or infliximab), interleukin-6 inhibitors (like tocilizumab), or rituximab. These targeted medications help reduce severe cartilage inflammation and protect your airway and remaining vision. Please discuss these advanced options with your rheumatologist and airway specialist to see if they are suitable for your specific care plan.
