Woolygimp,

I too had a very quick response to cellcept.  I noticed a huge difference in about 2 weeks (at 1gm/day).  Sadly, I got an unrelated, possibly life threatening, infection and had to stop.  I never did restart it, but may consider it at some point again.

Still doing great.  Been very active the last week and going on 4-5 hours of sleep on some days, and waking up refreshed.   Normally, I'd sleep 8-12 hours and wake up almost like I had never slept to begin with.

I do want to say that Cellcept isn't the only thing I'm doing to treat this.  I'm on a gluten free, dairy free, soy free diet, prednisone (tapering), Plaquenil, and vitamins.
