Vasculitis

[Guest guest]

Hi Everyone,

I haven't been diagnosed with this yet, however I remembered seeing this on

someone's legs before and when I noticed that I had these spots I did a little

research.

It looks pretty identical to allergic vasculitis pictures, although I won't

know until I go to the Dr.

I was curious if anyone else had this and does this mean the illness is more

active? I had a really bad sinus thing recently and took herbal remedies,

I wonder if they could cause this.

I am due to start grad school for the spring tomorrow night, but if this is

meaning more disease activity I don't want to.

Thanks for any help,

Beth

Beth,

I have Vasculitis flares occasionally, but they were only able to diagnose it

by doing a biopsy on one of the lesions. In my case, it usually did go along

with the Still's symptoms (at the same time, I mean) but that doesn't mean it

does in your case.

Don't worry about it too much, but I can tell you that Pred did the trick for

me.
