Hello everyone, I have recently joined this forum and would just like to say Hi. Hello from Bonny Scotland! ( 34 degrees Fahrenheit, grey skies, 95%humidity- are you jealous or what?)
I am just realising I am at the start of a very long journey; less than 5 weeks ago I had never even heard of WG.
My story is a different one in many ways. I am particularly interested in any comments anyone may have about the rapidity of the onset in my case , and the absence of any of the "classic" symptoms in early stages.
I'd also be interested in any thoughts anyone may have about the rapid, breezy 100% confidence with which my local hospital has already diagnosed WG. In fact my exact diagnosis- as detailed on my medical records- is "Vasculitis- Wegener's?".....
Thank you for reading this, I hope to learn a lot from you all and- I hope- have some fun along the way.
You can read my sorry tale in "Weggie's Stories". And yes, I already know I am a total idiot for not taking the joint pain seriously at first. Don't rub it in!
