Thanks, Sangye and Jack. Those are much better ways to look at it. I've been feeling crappish the last couple of days, and that always screws with my normally high optimism level.

And I don't think you should ever assume that each successive flare will be worse. Remember, WG is NOT a progressive disease.
Last year's flare was bad, but it was NOTHING like the original onset of Wegs. Last year I had bad joint pain but wasn't completely crippled by it. I also wasn't gasping for breath and didn't need to be on oxygen.
The stats tell me that it is very possible to live life without a flare; it is very possible to live life with Wegener's.
Every one of you who has lived years between flares is a huge encouragement to me.
Your encouragement is vital to me.
