Hi Anne,
Here's my two cents worth...
1. I'm assuming your doc is using sedimentation rate and C-reactive protein to check inflammation. These are general inflammation markers not specific to wegs. Therefore, you could be showing some sort of systemic inflammation without having wegs.
2. I think you'll be given a "twilight" anasthetic. You'll be somewhat awake, but won't feel anything.
3. I have no experience with saddle nose. Others will likely respond to this question.
4. For me, living with rtx has been a non-event. I'm a little tired for 24-48 hours following the infusion, and then I'm back to normal.
