It took me about three weeks. Assuming I count that it started from my nose getting clogged up. At first I got allergy drugs, then antibiotics. After the third antibiotics and the small amount of cortison did nothing I was sent to a specialist who took biopsies and sent me home. Following week I got worse and was taken to a hospital and then they took a lot of blood samples and were fairly sure I had WG three days later. The next week the biopsy indicated it was WG.
Although I had a hay-fever since May, and back then my nose started bleeding much more frequently. I din't really pay attention to that as I've had hay-fever for years. Today I figured the cortison injections I got for an operation in June might have been the reason I my nose felt better while I was at the hospital for the operation. So perhaps my symptoms started then, dunno.
