No, I see a local Rheumatologist and she is consulting with the rheumatologist at Mayo.

As you know, GCA/PMR are forms of Vasculitis.
I also have another form of Vasculitis. My Polyarteritis Nodosa was diagnosed in 2015 via biopsy. It’s a very rare disease. So, my arteries are inflamed already. However, the GCA symptoms are very different.
I don’t know what an endocrinologist would be helpful for. This is an autoimmune disease therefore a rheumatologist is the specialist.

My Polyarteritis Nodosa is so rare I have had to teach my health care professionals about it because they have never seen it before! Now, that’s frustrating!

There is a Vasculitis Foundation you can check out for more information.

Have a great day! 🌻
