Hi all,

I've been reading up a lot lately as you can imagine. Trying to understand what is happening in my body.

Here's what I think is the (dumbed down) current concensus as I understand it: please correct me where I'm misunderstanding the process/ disease.

The ANCA cells are changing the cytoplasm on the neutrophils (B cells) and the neutrophils/B cells are then in turn attacking the lining of blood vessels.

The treatment is to kill the B cells and stop the attack on the blood vessels.

What I don't understand, is why aren't we just killing the ANCA cells themselves and keeping the B cells so we have better immunity while being treated?

I feel like I must be missing something in my understanding of it all.

Thanks for any clarification.
