Thanks for letting me join. My husband has been hospitalized for the last 11 days and we just received the diagnosis of Wegeners from the kidney biopsy. He had 3 doses of steroids and today a dose of Cytoxan. Daily dialysis on day 3 to 6 then every other day since. Dialysis tomorrow and hopefully he will come home the following day. The plan is 3 days per week of dialysis and infusion of Cytoxan once every three weeks with daily prednisone until remission. His nephrologist " isn't hopeful for return of renal function". What questions should we be asking? My husband is 64 years old and has,in hindsight, had many problems related to this disorder for many months. Joint pain, conjunctivitis, sinusitis and occult blood in his urine as well as protein. He had been seeing his PCP, ENT, Urologist and podiatrist since July. I'm feeling discouraged and he is so disheartened. Thank you all.
