Anyone have granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) or Wegener's?

Hi! I just turned 23, I’m from Buckeye AZ and for GPA I am on prednisone and azathioprine (imuran) 150 mg. Since I was so strongly immunosuppressed when I was first diagnosed, I caught Valley Fever and it turned into valley fever meningitis which is an uncureable meningitis so I am on a lot of medication for that as well!

My son is on Methotrexate weekly and we go in for infusions every 3 months. The doctors have him spend the night and do it in 24 house due to the risk of the meningitis.
