Ep 184 - Vasculitis Insights: What is Vasculitis

Team Vasculitis: Thriving through Life with Chronic Illness

I get asked so often “What is Vasculitis?”

So today - if you’re listening to this in real time - it is May 2023 and that means it’s Vasculitis Awareness month! In honor of that I thought I would kick the month off with an overview of what this family of diseases is.

In today's episode:

• What is Vasculitis?
• Who gets Vasculitis?
• What are the symptoms of Vasculitis?
• What are the types of Vasculitis?
• How is Vasculitis treated?
• Side effects from medications
• Relapse rates
• How is Vasculitis diagnosed?
• What doctors do you need?
• What complications happen with Vasculitis?
• Life with Vasculitis
