    My primary care physician in Fort Worth who sees me for non-WG issues says he would rather not risk making treatment decisions on WG related matters. Only problem with this is that when I have sinus, leg swelling, infections, the flu or a cold, where do you draw the line at WG vs. non-WG?

    You don't...it's always WG first then whatever next...

    So true. It can be very hard to tell what is disease activity, damage from disease, effects from meds or something else.

    This thread helps me a lot! Every time a new symptom arises I don't know what to do. I kind of didn't want to accept that it was WG related, but guess there's no choice. Problem I experience now is trying to forge on and not wait around for a symptom to arise. Live life!! 😌
    I am a strong person, but every now and then I also need someone to take my hand & say everything will be alright....

    ..I'm still not sure what to do about vaccines. It sounds like doctors give conflicting advice.

    Shawn have you been to the vasculitus web site to see if there are any docs within traveling distance to you? Vasculitis Foundation They also consult so if your local doc is willing you could possibly make that happen.

    That's great news. It seems the real key to fighting Wegs is having the right medical team in addition to learning as much as we can and taking charge of our care.
