Hello teacher. Unfortunately, that is the nature of autoimmune disorders. They are chronic. You may go for a long period of time feeling well, and then they will flare. A lot of people will increase their prednisone, or add prednisone to their medication during a flare to help alleviate the symptoms.
Best Wishes,
